Connecting Your Equipment
Connecting your TV
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
Connect your TV to the jacks as shown below. Hook up with either component video, S video, or compos-
ite video cords (the quality descends in this order) but you must use the same type of video cords to
hook up your DVD player (and all other video components) as you use to hook up your TV. If you
plan to hook up your DVD player with component video cords hook up your TV with them as well but in
this case you must also hook up your TV with composite video or S video cords because you won't be
able to see the receiver's on-screen displays with a component video hook up. Composite video cords,
which look just like regular RCA audio cords (see page 20) but have only one cable are the most common.

The video signal is
divided into the
luminance (Y) signal and
the color (PB and PR)
signals. In this way,
interference between
the signals is avoided.
Component Video Input Default Settings
If you use component video cords to hook up your video equipment it is easiest to do so following the
default settings, which are listed below. Remember you must use component video cords from your
video source (for example, a DVD player) to the receiver and from the receiver to your TV (or monitor). If
you don't follow the default settings below you must assign the inputs you used with the "Assigning the
Component Video Inputs" procedure. See page 92 to do this.
The default settings are:
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1: DVD/LD
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2: TV/SAT
S VIDEO
S video cables produce
clearer picture
reproduction by sending
separate signals for the
luminance and the color.
Composite Video
Composite video cords are the most common or standard video cord but also
the lowest quality. The color on the connector is yellow to distinguish it from
regular RCA audio cords which have white and red connectors (see page 20).
It is important to use a true composite video cord and not an audio cord
(though they look exactly the same) because the impedance is different and
this will affect the picture quality.
