When making cable connections

• To avoid hum, do not lay connected cables over the

top of the receiver.

• 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.

1

If several video components are assigned to the same
input function (see

The Input Setup menu on page 67),

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 72)

OFF.

• The ZONE 2 video input can also be converted. For details, see

Setting the Video options on page 72.
