• For best picture quality (especially with progressive DVD and other high definition sources), choose the
component video connection to your monitor. S-Video and composite video outputs are also provided if
your monitor does not have component video inputs.
• The signals input to the color difference (component) video terminals are not output from the VIDEO
output terminal (yellow) or the S-Video output terminal.
Connecting a DVD player and monitor
•To connect the digital audio output from the DVD player, you can choose from either the coaxial or
optical connections. If you choose to use the coaxial connection, it needs to be assigned. For more
information about Digital Input Assignment ( page 19).
• Precaution when using S-Video terminals
AVR-487’s S-Video terminals (input and output) and video terminals (input and output) have independent
circuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-Video terminals are only output from the S-Video
terminal outputs and video signals input from the pin terminals are only output from the pin terminal
outputs.
When connecting this unit with equipment that is equipped with S-Video terminals, keep the above point
in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s instruction manuals.
Audio signal flow is shown with white arrows, video signal flow is shown with gray arrows.
• Connect a non-DVD video disc player (such as a laser disc, VCD/SVCD, or future high definition disc
player) to the DVD/VDP terminals in the same way.
• The component video input and/or output terminals may be labelled differently on some monitors or
video components. Check the owner’s manuals for other components for further information.
