⿠ When the player/recorder cannot be operated with the remote
controller of the AV receiver, the corresponding component may
not be programmed to support the remote controller operation of
CEC. Program the remote control code of the component maker
to the remote controller for using.
About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital
interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-
ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video
components. Until now, several separate video and audio
cables have been required to connect AV components. With
HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video,
and digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital
audio, and multichannel PCM).
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible
with DVI (Digital Visual Interface) ( ¼ 1), so TVs and displays
with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-
DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and
displays, resulting in no picture.)
This unit supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) ( ¼ 2), so it can display picture only on HDCP-
compatible components.
The HDMI on this unit supports the following functions:
Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, DeepColor, Lip Sync,
4K (Passthrough), DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High
Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD
and Multichannel PCM.
Supported Audio Formats of this Unit:
⿠ 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
⿠ Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz,
16/20/24 bit)
⿠ Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby
TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD
Master Audio)
Your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI
output of the above audio formats.
About Copyright Protection:
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection) ( ¼ 2), a copy-protection system for
digital video signals. Other components connected to the
AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set
by the DDWG (¼3) in 1999.
*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video
encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It is designed
to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible HDMI/DVI
receiver to display the encrypted video.
*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq,
Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open
industry group's objective is to address the industry's requirements for
a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PC and digital
displays.
Note:
⿠ The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with
DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI
input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable.
(Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you will need
to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable
operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition,
video signals from a PC are not supported.
⿠ The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be
restricted by the connected source component. If the picture
is poor or there is no sound from a component connected via
HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component's
instruction manual for details.
Home network (LAN)
The connection of several components via cables enabling
the mutual communication is called a network.
At households, many families create (generally, the term
"build" is used) a network to connect computers and
gaming machines to the Internet and to exchange data
between computers.
The network established in a relatively narrow area such as
one household is called a LAN (Local Area Network).
In this manual, a term "home network" (network for a
family) is used instead of "LAN," so this LAN becomes
more familiar.
By connecting this unit with the network server such as a
PC, playing music files in the network server (in the PC) is
Reference Information
possible. Moreover, by connecting to the Internet, listening
to the Internet radio is also possible.
This unit, PC, and Internet are not directly connected.
When connecting with a PC and/or Internet, several
components (network components) are necessary.
Components necessary for establishing a home
network (LAN):
Components necessary for the home network (LAN) for
using the NET function of this unit are as follows.
■ Router
A router is a device that controls information (data) flow
between the unit, PC, and the Internet.
As a network term, the flow of information (data) is called
"traffic". The router has a role to control the information flow
as the traffic control, between connected components.
⿠ A router with a built-in 100Base-TX switch is
recommended.
⿠ In addition, if your router has the DHCP function,
facilitating the network setting becomes possible.
⿠ Some routers have a built-in modem, and some Internet
Service Providers (ISP) require you to use specific
routers.
Please consult your ISP or PC dealer if you are unsure.
■ CAT5 Ethernet cable
The Ethernet cable is a cable that actually connects
devices that comprise the network. There are straight type
and cross type Ethernet cables.
⿠ Use a shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable (straight-type) to
connect the unit to your home network.
Consult your cable store for details of Ethernet cable.
■ Network server
(When PC and the like/network server is used)
Conponent that stores music files and provides those files
at the time of playback.
⿠ Requirements for use with this unit depend on the
conponent that is used as a network server.
⿠ Conditions for pleasant playback of music files on the AV
receiver depend on the using network server (computer
performance). See instruction manuals of using devices.
