About the audio connection
There are several types of audio input and
output terminals on this receiver. The receiver
selects the first available signal in the following
order:
• With an HDMI cable, video and audio
signals can be transferred in high quality
over a single cable.
CAUTION
• When connecting optical cables, be careful
when inserting the plug not to damage the
shutter protecting the optical socket.
• When storing optical cable, coil loosely.
The cable may be damaged if bent around
sharp corners.
About the video converter
The video converter ensures that all video
sources are output through all of the
MONITOR VIDEO OUT jacks. The only
exception is HDMI: since this resolution
cannot be downsampled, you must connect
your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI video
outputs when connecting this video source.

If several video components are assigned to
the same input function (see
The Input Setup
menu on page 39), the converter gives priority
to HDMI, component, then composite (in that
order).

Note
1 • If the video signal does not appear on your TV or flat panel TV, 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, try switching Digital Video Conversion (in
Setting the Video options on page 67) OFF.
• The signal input resolutions that can be converted from the component video input for the HDMI output are 480i/
576i, 480p/576p, 720p and 1080i. 1080p signals cannot be converted.
• Only signals with an input resolution of 480i/576i can be converted from the component video input for the
composite monitor output.
