Notes :
• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using HDMI cords that are a maximum of 5 meters in length.
• Among the components that support HDMI, some components can control other components via the HDMI
connector. However, this unit cannot be controlled by another component via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by
the component that is connected.
• The video signals will not be output properly if a component incompatible with HDCP is connected.
• If the resolutions of the video signals which are output from the MONITOR OUTs and your monitor TV are not
matched, the picture is not clear, natural or displayed. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on either
this unit or the source component (DVD player, etc.) to one which the monitor TV can handle. (For details, refer
to "When selecting the VIDEO SCALING" on page 58 or the operating instructions of the source component.)
• When you want to enjoy only the picture on your TV, not the sound, you should set the HDMI AUDIO OUT to
OFF not to output the digital audio signal from the HDMI MONITOR OUT of this receiver. (For details, refer to
"When selecting the HDMI AUDIO OUT" on page 53.)
Component video input default settings: (*2)
• If you connect the COMPONENT VIDEO INs to your video components, it is easier to do so following the
default settings.
• If your component video connections are different from the default setting, you should assign the COMPONENT
VIDEO INs you used with the "When selecting the VIDEO ASSIGN" procedure on page 57.
• The default settings are as follows:
COMPONENT IN 1 : VIDEO 1, COMPONENT IN 2 : VIDEO 2, COMPONENT IN 3 : VIDEO 3
• There are three types of video jacks (COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, (composite) VIDEO) for analog video
connections and the HDMI connectors for digital video and audio connections.
Connect them to the corresponding video jacks according to their capability.
• For your reference, the excellence in picture quality is as follows : "HDMI” > "COMPONENT" > "S-VIDEO" >
"(composite) VIDEO" .
• When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect "Y" to "Y", "PB/CB" to "CB"(or "B-Y", "PB") and
"PR/CR" to "CR"(or "R-Y", "PR").
• When recording video program sources through VIDEO 1 OUT jacks or viewing ROOM 2 source through
ROOM 2 OUT jacks, you must use the same type of video jacks that you did connect to video playback
components such as DVD player, cable TV tuner, etc.
Video conversion
• This unit is equipped with a function that up-converts the video signals to the higher quality video signals and
down-converts the video signals to the lower quality video signals and outputs them from the MONITOR OUTs.
• Because of this, the MONITOR OUT jack(s) can be connected to the monitor TV with a set of cord(s) offering a
higher quality, regardless of how to make video connections between this unit and video playback components.
• After connecting the video components, you should set the VIDEO MODE correctly to output the video signals
from the connected MONITOR OUT(s). (For details, refer to "When selecting the VIDEO MODE" on page 57.)
