Connecting Hdmi Components - Yamaha RX-V1600 Owner's Manual

Connecting HDMI components

This unit has the HDMI IN 1 and HDMI IN 2 jacks for digital audio and video signal input as well as the HDMI OUT
jack for digital audio and video signal output. Connect the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack of this unit to the HDMI OUT
jack of other HDMI components (such as a DVD player). Connect the HDMI OUT jack of this unit to the HDMI IN jack
of other HDMI components (such as a TV and a projector).
The video or audio signals input at the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack you selected using the HDMI IN menu in I/O
ASSIGNMENT (see page 76) or the INPUT selector on the front panel are output at the HDMI OUT jack of this unit. In
addition, the audio signals input at the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack are output to speakers, headphones and the
DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.
Notes
• We recommend using an HDMI cable shorter than 5 meters with the HDMI logo printed on it.
• Digital audio signals input at the HDMI IN jacks are not output at the analog AUDIO OUT jacks.
• Some audio signals may not be output at the DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks depending on the signal type.
• The analog video signals input at the composite video, S-video and component video jacks can be digitally up-converted to be output
at the HDMI OUT jack. Set HDMI I/P to ON in MANUAL SETUP to activate this feature (see page 79).
• Some video monitors connected to this unit via a DVI connection fail to recognize the HDMI audio signals being input if they are in
the standby mode. In this case, the HDMI indicator flashes irregularly and HDCP ERROR appears in the front panel display as if the
DVI monitors do not support the HDCP copy protection standards.
