Image: HDMI eARC/ARC connection steps.

Note: Your TV's HDMI port needs to support eARC to transmit the Dolby Atmos audio format to your Soundbar.

• Atmos: If you are watching a movie in the Dolby Atmos format, please set the audio output on your TV to Pass Through: TV Settings > Home > Settings > Sound > Digital Audio Output > Pass Through
• DTS: If you are watching a movie in the DTS format, please set the audio output on your TV to PCM: TV Settings > Home > Settings > Sound > Digital Audio Output > PCM

What's the difference between: HDMI IN, HDMI ARC, HDMI eARC?

• HDMI IN: A standard HDMI input that allows you to connect devices to your TV or audio system. It supports audio and video signals, but it does not support audio return channel (ARC) or enhanced audio return channel (eARC) functionality.
• HDMI ARC: A special HDMI port that supports two-way communication between your TV and audio system. This means that audio can be sent from your TV to your audio system, and the audio system can send audio back to your TV.
• HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel): An updated version of HDMI ARC that supports higher quality audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.

Note: Please turn on the "CEC" function on your TV. When eARC / ARC is connected, your TV remote control can control the soundbar and TV simultaneously: Turn on / off and Adjust the volume.
