INSTALLATION
• Connect the recorder’s optical digital audio output to the Optical 2
Input on the AVR (if available).
• Then go to “Composite/S-Video” below to make recordings, as the
AVR 154 cannot make recordings from copy-protected component
video sources or digital audio (except 2-channel) sources.

Composite/S-Video: If the best video connection common to both
the recorder and the TV is either S-video or composite video, or to
make recordings, follow these steps, using only one type of video
connection throughout (see Figure 25):
• Connect the recorder’s S-video/composite video output to the
Video 1 S-Video/Composite Video Input on the AVR.
• Connect the recorder’s S-video/composite video input to the Video 1
S-Video/Composite Video Output on the AVR.
• Connect the recorder’s analog audio outputs to the Video 1 Audio
Inputs on the AVR.
• Connect the recorder’s analog audio inputs to the Video 1 Audio
Outputs on the AVR.

NOTE: If S-video or composite video is the only video connec-
tion, you may also use any available digital audio connection.
Connect a Cable TV, Satellite, HDTV or Other Set-Top
Box for Broadcast Television
NOTE: If you receive your television programming using your
TV with an antenna or direct cable connection, connect the TV’s
analog audio outputs to the Video 3 Analog Audio Inputs. If the
TV has a digital audio output, connect it to one of the front-
panel digital audio inputs.
Do not
connect any video output on
the television set to any video input on the receiver. See Step
Five for information on connecting the receiver’s video monitor
outputs to the television.
HDMI Video: If the set-top box and the TV both have an HDMI
connector, connect the set-top box as follows (see Figure 26):
• Connect the set-top’s HDMI output to the HDMI 3 Input on the AVR.
• Connect the set-top’s optical digital audio output to the Optical 1 Input
on the AVR (if available).

Component Video: If the set-top box or the TV does not have an
HDMI connector, but they both have component video connectors,
connect the set-top box as follows (see Figure 27):
• Connect the set-top’s component video output to the Component
Video 2 Input on the AVR (if available).
• Connect the set-top’s optical digital audio output to the Optical 1
Input on the AVR (if available).
