Connecting a TV and playback components

Connecting using HDMI

If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped
component (Blu-ray Disc player, etc.), you can connect it to
this receiver using a commercially available HDMI cable.
If the TV and playback components support the Control with
HDMI feature, the convenient Control with HDMI functions
can be used (see Control with HDMI function on page 43).
• The following connection/setting is required to listen to
the sound of the TV over this receiver.
- If the TV does not support the HDMI Audio Return
Channel function, connect the receiver and TV with
audio cables (as shown).
If the TV supports the HDMI Audio Return Channel
-
function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via
the HDMI terminal, so there is no need to connect an
audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON
(see HDMI Setup on page 43).
Important
• VSX-821 only:
- If the receiver is connected to a TV using an HDMI cable,
the on-screen display (OSD) will not be displayed. Be
sure to use a standard RCA analog video cable to
connect. In this case, switch the TV input to analog to
see the OSD screen (for setup, etc.) on the TV.
When the Control with HDMI function is ON and the
-
receiver is connected to a compatible TV with an HDMI
cable, and you switch the input of the TV to composite
or component, the input of the receiver may
automatically switch to TV/SAT. If this happens, switch
the receiver's input back to the original input, or turn
OFF the Control with HDMI function (see HDMI Setup
on page 43).
