¢ Connections with an HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable (adapter)
• The HDMI video stream signals (video signals) are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When
connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with DVI-D terminals, it is possible to connect using an
HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable, but depending on the combination of devices used the image might not
be output.
• When using an HDMI/DVI-D conversion adapter, the image may not be output properly due to poor
contact with the connected cable, etc.
NOTE:
• The audio signals on the multi/stereo area of Super Audio CDs are not output. If the Super Audio CD
is a hybrid CD, only the audio signals in the CD area are output.
• Use a compatible player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright protected by CPPM.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI
terminal; however, the AVR-887 cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI terminal.
• The audio signals from the HDMI terminal (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be
limited by the equipment that is connected.
• The video signals are not output properly if a device not compatible with HDCP is used.
• Use an HDMI monitor compatible with an HDMI input resolution of 480i or 576i.
• The video signals input from the HDMI input terminals are output to the HDMI monitor with their
original resolution, so the image will not be displayed if the resolutions of the input signal and the
monitor being used are not matched. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source
device (player) to one which the monitor can handle.
• Use a cable including the HDMI logo (HDMI certified product) for connection of the HDMI terminal.
Normal playback may not be possible if a cable that does not include the HDMI logo (non-HDMI-
certified product) is used.

¢ Copyright Protection System
To play back the digital video and audio of DVD-
Video and DVD-Audio through an HDMI/DVI-D
connection, both the connected player and
monitor are required to support a copyright
protection system called HDCP (High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copy
protection technology that comprises data
encryption and authentication of the partner
equipment.
The AVR-887 supports HDCP. Please see the
user’s manual of your video display for more
information about this.
The AVR-887 is HDMI Ver. 1.1 compatible.
• If your digital monitor or DVD player only supports DVI-D, please obtain and use an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable or adaptor, available from your dealer.
Connecting equipment with HDMI terminals
• A simple 1-cable connection (using a commercially available cable) with a device having an HDMI (High-
Definition Multimedia Interface) terminal allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-Video and
other sources, and the multi-channel sound of DVD-Audio and DVD-Video.
• To provide audio output from AVR-887’s audio output terminal, select “Amp” at the “HDMI In Assign”.
To provide audio output from the TV, select “TV” at the “HDMI In Assign” ( page 53).
