Using The Component Video Jacks - Pioneer VSX-518 Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting up

Using the component video jacks

Component video should deliver superior
picture quality when compared to composite
video. A further advantage (if your source and
TV are both compatible) is progressive-scan
video, which delivers a very stable, flicker-free
picture. See the manuals that came with your
TV and source component to check whether
they are progressive-scan video compatible.
Important
• If you connect any source component to
the receiver using a component video
input, you must also have your TV
connected to this receiver's COMPONENT
VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks.
1 Connect the component video outputs of
your source to a set of component video
inputs on this receiver.
Use a three-way component video cable.
2 If necessary, assign the component video
inputs to the input source you've connected.
This only needs to be done if you didn't connect
according to the following defaults:
• COMP 1 – DVD
• COMP 2 – TV
• COMP 3 – DVR
See Assigning the component video inputs on
page 33.
3 Connect the COMPONENT VIDEO
MONITOR OUT jacks on this receiver to the
component video inputs on your TV or
monitor.
Use a three-way component video cable.
