The diagram shows a basic setup of this receiver together
with a Blu-ray disc player, with S-video or composite
video connections. See also Using the component video
jacks on page 16 if your Blu-ray disc player has
component video inputs/outputs. If your Blu-ray disc
player offers multi-channel analog audio outputs, see
Connecting the multichannel analog inputs on page 55.
1 Connect a composite or S-video output on your Blu-
ray disc player to the
BD VIDEO
or
BD S-VIDEO

Connect using an optical cable.
3 Connect the stereo audio outputs on your Blu-ray
disc player to the
BD AUDIO
inputs.
Connect using a stereo RCA/phono jack cable.

outputs, you can connect these instead. See also
Connecting the multichannel analog inputs on
page 55.
Connecting a satellite/cable receiver or
other set-top box
Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV
tuners are all examples of so-called ‘set-top boxes’.
1 Connect the audio/video outputs on the set-top
box to the
TV/SAT
AUDIO
and
VIDEO
inputs.
Connect using a stereo RCA/phono jack cable and a
video or S-video

3
digital audio output from
your set-top box to the
OPTICAL IN 1
(
TV/SAT
) input.

Use an optical cable for the connection.
Note
1 If your Blu-ray disc player only has an coaxial digital output, you can connect it to one of the coaxial inputs on this receiver using an coaxial cable. When
you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the player to (see The System Setup menu on page 39).
2See The Input Setup menu on page 66 to assign the S-VIDEO 2 input to the TV/SAT input function if you make this connection.
3 If your set-top box only has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it to one of the coaxial inputs on this receiver using a coaxial digital audio cable.
When you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the set-top box to (see The Input Setup menu on page 66).
4 If your satellite/cable receiver doesn’t have a digital audio output, you can skip this step.
