Connecting using HDMI
If you have a HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped compo-
nent, you can connect it to this receiver using a commer-
cially available HDMI cable.
1
The HDMI connection transfers uncompressed digital
video, as well as almost every kind of digital audio that the
connected component is compatible with, including
DVD-Video, DVD-Audio (see below for limitations), Video
CD/Super VCD, CD and MP3. See
About the video
converter
on page 11 for more on HDMI compatibility.
1 Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI IN
interconnect on this receiver to an HDMI output on your
HDMI component.
HDMI
appears on the front panel when an HDMI-
equipped component is connected.
2 Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT
interconnect on this receiver to an HDMI interconnect
on a HDMI-compatible monitor.
• The arrow on the cable connector body should be
facing right for correct alignment with the connector
on the player.
3 Use the INPUT SELECT button to select the HDMI
input you’ve connected to (for example, HDMI 2).
You can also use the front panel
INPUT SELECTOR
dial.
• Set the HDMI parameter in
Setting the AV options
on
page 66 to
THROUGH
if you want to hear HDMI
audio output from your TV or plasma display (no
sound will be heard from this receiver).
• If the video signal does not appear on your TV or
plasma display, try adjusting the resolution settings
on your component or display. Note that some
components (such as video game units) have
resolutions that may not be converted. In this case,
use an analog video connection.
• You can’t hear HDMI audio through this receiver’s
digital out jacks.
About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports
both video and audio on a single digital connection for
use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV
devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technolo-
gies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one
specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced,
or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel
surround-sound audio. HDMI features include uncom-
pressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes
per second (with HDTV signals), one connector (instead
of several cables and connectors), and communication
between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
HDMI, the logo and High-Definition Multi-
media Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of
HDMI licensing LLC.
Note
1• An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVI
HDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support
audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.
• This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) Version 1.2. Depending on the component you have
connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers. Also, when using a component with HDMI version 1.0, it is not possible to
output copy-controlled DVD-Audio CPPM sources from the HDMI connection.
