HDMI ARC

Connecting OSKAR easy to the TV via HDMI ARC
  1. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI connection on the back of the base station .
  2. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to your TV's HDMI (ARC) connection.
Note: Make sure that you use the designated HDMI connection on your TV, labelled HDMI (ARC) or HDMI (eARC/ARC).
  1. Open your TV's audio settings and set the sound output to HDMI (ARC).
  2. Set the TV's digital audio output in the sound settings to PCM. If the output is not set to PCM, OSKAR easy may not play any sound.

Setting PCM on the TV

The following video shows you how to set PCM on your TV.

Please note: This video shows the first OSKAR model. The PCM setting shown also applies to OSKAR easy.

Note: Depending on the TV manufacturer and model, the term “PCM Stereo” or a similar name may be used. For more information on adjusting your TV's settings, please refer to your TV's user manual.

With this type of connection, most TVs automatically mute their built-in speakers. If they remain audible, an echo may occur between OSKAR easy and TV sound.

In this case, disable the built-in speakers in your TV's sound settings (audio output selection, for example “External speakers” or “Off”) rather than using the volume control. The signal for OSKAR easy is unaffected.

When you switch OSKAR easy off, your TV normally switches back to its built-in speakers automatically.
