GETTING STARTED
• If your system-best video connection is “S-video”, or if you have
source devices with S-video outputs that have not been assigned
to an HDMI or Component Video Input, then assign up to three
devices to one of the three numbered S-video Inputs.
• If your system-best video connection is “Composite Video”, or if
you have source devices with composite video outputs that have
not been assigned to any other video input, then assign up to three
devices to one of the three numbered composite video Inputs.
NOTE: If the source device is a video recorder that will
be used to record from other devices connected to the AVR,
assign the recorder to the Composite or S-Video Video 2
Input, which has a recording output. Any of the Coaxial or
Optical Digital Inputs may be assigned to the recorder for
audio, if it is capable of making digital audio recordings. To
make analog recordings, assign either the Analog 3 or 4 Audio
Inputs to the recorder, as both have recording outputs. It is
not necessary to connect TiVo or PVR devices that will only
record from their direct cable or satellite television signals to
the AVR’s recording outputs.
6. Decide which audio inputs to connect to each
source: Assign only one unique digital audio input to each digital
source. Assign analog audio inputs to analog sources, or as second-
ary connections for digital sources for backup, for recording or to
make the source available to the multizone system.
• Any source using an HDMI Input requires no additional connection
for audio
unless:
◆
The source doesn’t output multichannel audio through its HDMI
output. Make a second connection to the 6-/8-Channel Analog
Audio Inputs.
◆
The source has an HDCP-compliant DVI output for video only.
Assign a digital or analog audio input.
• For any source whose best audio connection is optical or coaxial
digital audio, assign one of the four Optical or four Coaxial Digital
Audio Inputs. Do not connect both types of digital audio to the
same source device.
• You may assign one of the 2-Channel Analog Audio Inputs to
a digital source.
• You may also assign the 6-/8-Channel Analog Audio Inputs,
if available, to a digital source.
• Assign one of the six 2-channel Analog Audio Inputs to an
analog source.
NOTE: If the source device is a digital audio recorder, it may
be used with any of the Coaxial or Optical Digital Audio Inputs
and Outputs. Both coaxial and optical signals are available at
either digital audio output. To make analog recordings, assign
either the Analog 3 or 4 Audio Inputs to the recorder, as both
have recording outputs.
