settings, no menus or on-screen displays are visible.

DVR and an HDMI-compatible monitor. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) supports either standard-definition or high-definition video, plus
up to 5.1 channels of digital audio. You can use the supplied HDMI to DVI
adapter to supply video to a monitor with a DVI-HDTV input. When using
the adapter, a separate audio connection is required.
✍
The HDMI connector has a higher priority when both the HDMI and
COMPONENT outputs are connected to a monitor(s). To enable the
COMPONENT output, disconnect the HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT
connector.
