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 compatible with progressive-scan
video.
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 for the
connection.
2 Assign the component video inputs to the
input source you've connected.
• Since they are assignable, it doesn't matter
which component video inputs you use for
which source. After connecting everything,
you'll need to assign the component video
inputs—see The Input Assign menu on
page 62.
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.
