Connecting Video Components; Connecting To The Front Panel Video Terminal - Pioneer VSX-1015TX Operating Instructions Manual

03 Connecting up

Connecting video components

Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. With digital video components (like a DVD player), you
must use the connections shown on this page for the video signal, but in order to hear a digital source (like a DVD)
you should hook up the audio to a digital input (see page 16). It is also a good idea to hook up your digital components
with analog audio connections (see page 17).
For better quality video, you can hook up using the component video jacks or the S-video jacks (quality descends in
this order) on the rear of the receiver instead of the regular video jacks. See About the video converter on page 15 if you
plan on connecting your other video components using different types of video cables than for your TV.
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected from
the AC outlet.
• The arrows indicate the direction of the signal.

Connecting to the front panel video terminal

Front video connections are accessed via the front panel
using the VIDEO2 button. There are standard audio/
video jacks as well as an S-video jack and an optical
input. Hook them up the same way you made the rear
panel connections.
