Remedy
• Check the video connections of the source component (see page 28).
• For HDMI, or when digital video conversion is set to OFF and a TV and another
component are connected with different cords (in Setting the Video options on
page 67), you must connect your TV to this receiver using the same type of video
cable as you used to connect your video component.
• Make sure the input assignment is correct for components connected using
component video or HDMI cables (see The Input Setup menu on page 39).
• Check the video output settings of the source component.
• Check that the video input you selected on your TV is correct.
• Some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not
be converted. If adjusting this receiver's Resolution setting (in Setting the Video
options on page 67) and/or the resolution settings on your component or
display doesn't work, try switching Digital Video Conversion (in Setting the Video
options on page 67) OFF.
• Check that the source is not copy-protected.
• The video converter is not available when making recordings. Check that the
same type of video cable is used for connecting both the recorder and the video
source (the one you want to record) to this receiver.
• Sometimes a video deck may output a noisy video signal (during scanning,
for example), or the video quality may just be poor (with some video game units,
for example). The picture quality may also depend on the settings, etc. of your
display device. Switch off the video converter and reconnect the source and
display device using the same type of connection (component or composite),
then start playback again.
Remedy
• The ambient noise level may be too high. Keep the noise level in the room as
low as possible (see also Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on
page 39). If the noise level cannot be kept low enough, you will have to set up
the surround sound manually (page 94).
• When using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND
BACK L (Single) terminals.
• To use a 5.1-channel speaker set, use the surround speakers for the surround
channel, not the surround back channel.
• Make sure there are no obstacles between the speakers and the microphone.
• If Reverse Phase is displayed, try the following:
– The speaker's wiring (+ and –) may be inverted. Check the speaker
connections.
– Depending on the type of speakers and their installation conditions, Reverse
Phase may be displayed even if the speakers are properly connected. If this
happens, select GO NEXT and continue.
– If the speaker is not pointed to the microphone (listening position) or when
using speakers that affect the phase (dipole speakers, reflective speakers, etc.),
it may not be possible to properly identify the polarity.
