HDMI Pass Through

HDMI Audio Bypass Mode

During normal HDMI operation, with an HDMI input selected for listening, the DSM will not pass audio to the HDMI output and any attached HDMI downstream devices (example TV). Audio is only passed to the HDMI output when the DSM is in HDMI Audio Bypass Mode. This mode can be activated either by entering sleep/standby mode or by selecting a non HDMI input for listening.

HDMI CEC

During normal HDMI operation, with an HDMI input selected for listening, the DSM will ignore all CEC commands arriving from upstream source devices (BluRay disk players etc). The DSM will respond to CEC source switching commands when HDMI Audio Bypass Mode is active.
