Can you turn off the screen if feeding audio through the TV (e.g. Apple TV, HDMI in, then playing iTunes, Optical Audio to speakers, screen OFF)?

i think so but tv speakers are terrible id recomend if yer trying to save money is a sound bar and for example like mine i can even play stuff thru the sound bar via blue tooth

NO! There is no such function with this TV that allows it to output any audio with the screen off. You will have image burn issues, which Panasonic will do nothing about. (Spoken from experience with burn from Pandora and thoroughly discussing the matter with Panasonic)

There is a screen saver feature that might let you do that, but I never tried it as the speakers are crummy TV speakers. Might want to do something else if you can.

Yep, I did. Hook an optical sound cable from the TV to your receiver and switch TV sound to external speakers. Mine sounds awesome in surround sound. This will turn your TV speakers off however. Cheers, Gary

Yes you can mute it and either have it on Vox so the screen will stay dark until it picks up sound or just leave it on On so it stays on but it is muted.

You can turn off both audio and video in settings, although I'm not sure whether you're trying to turn it off completely so as to make it invisible over the internet as well...I think the settings just control that particular device/ipad/iphone/computer. However I unplugged it a few times and it seemed to work fine when plugged back in...I would confirm w tech support.

Yes, if you hit stop once or hit pause. Then turn off. I have had no problems with this player.

If you can turn off a Macbook with a universal tv remote, then yes. This device just runs through a bunch of universal remote codes to turn the item off.

Mr. Sanchez, You can turn off the screen. Use the menu/backlight key. Press and hold for 3 seconds to turn it off and press and hold for 3 seconds to turn it back on. Top of page 4 in the instructions. Good luck.

not really, I wouldn't recommend that unless if you want your TV to be connected to the internet when your Apple TV box is switched off.

Yes l. As well as through your tv. If you don't want it to play through the tv as well... you mute the tv.

There's a setting to enable pass through. I've never tried it with audio, but frequently I miss turning it on and will get the video without the speakers.

No, you can not turn off the LCD. You can set the brightness to a very low level; however you can not turn it off.

No, you can't. I tried it from the apple TV to the HDTV, and noting was coming out. I also tried it with other combinations. Nothing. I Don't recommend this product. It was too late when I found out and I could no longer do a return. I ended up throwing it.

Yes, you can turn the sound off. Just hit the sound button once to turn off, then again to turn it back on. Don't feel bad, I can't see the screen on mine unless I slant it in a downward position away from me and that is very awkward, so I don't play with it anymore. I chalk it up to experience!

No speaker. The length of time your screen stays on, for media, is in your settings. Music will play without the screen being on.

I don't use I tunes but it will allow it from media played which is obviously native to most of the PC operating, sorry not an apple fan!

You are correct that it will not play though the TV if all you are using is HDMI Cables, but if you hook up Apple TV to the Television via a HDMI cable and then from the television hook up either standard RCA plugs or a Digital Coaxial/Digital Fiber optic cable to the Home theater system you should be able to get audio. (provided there are enough inputs left on the home theater system)

Yes you can turn the volume all the way down on your video screen so you dont hear the cameras. And i think you can turn each camera off, but you cant turn the sound off on the individual cameras; only on the monitor you use to see/listen.
