Abstract:
Practical speaker connection is identified using a device having a sound channel of a 5.1 channel or 7.1 channel, and a device is provided that can easily reproduce the optimum multiple channels. Actual speaker arrangement can be identified by, for example, measuring the impedance of a terminal at the side of an audio amplifier. If incorrect connection is found, a warning is issued. This information is transmitted to a signal source with an EDID and a signal with the optimum a number of sound channel is sent. The EDID is also used for the connection with a display unit and the speaker connection with which the display unit is provided uniquely. For example, a sound through the 7.1 channel is easily reproduced using the speaker of the display unit in the channel of the front speaker.

Claim (Index 1):
A sound processing method for transmitting sound output information in a sound processing unit connectable to a video sound signal outputting unit and a display device, the sound processing unit selectively outputs sound according to a sound signal from the video sound signal outputting unit by a first speaker connecting to the sound processing unit or by a second speaker built in the display device, the method comprising the steps of:\n transmitting sound output information held in memory, including information about sound channels of the sound processing unit, to the video sound signal outputting unit; notifying the video sound signal outputting unit of change in the sound output information by transmitting a state change of connection with the video sound signal outputting unit during keeping to output the video sound signal and transmitting the changed sound output information to the video sound signal outputting unit according to a request of the video sound signal outputting unit after receiving the state change.
