No picture.
No sound, or sound suddenly
ceases.
Note:
• An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVI → HDMI) to do so.
A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.
• This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) Version 1.3a.
Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers. Also, when using
a component with HDMI version 1.39, it is not possible to output copy-controlled DVD-Audio CPPM sources from the HDMI connection.
Digital Video Converting System
The following chart is for video converting. As you can see HDMI input signal is output to HDMI output terminal only.
Other analog inputs can be converted to HDMI output signal.

Remedy
Check all the points below.
• This receiver is HDCP-compatible. Check that the components you are connecting are also HDCP-
compatible. If they are not, please connect them using the component, S-video or composite video jacks.
• Depending on the connected source component, it's possible that it will not work with this receiver (even
if it is HDCP-compatible).
• If the problem still persists when connecting your HDMI component directly to your monitor, please
consult the component or monitor manual or contact the manufacturer for support.
• Depending in the output settings of the source component, it may be outputting a video format that can't
be displayed. Change the output settings of the source, or connect using the component, S-video or
composite jacks.
• Check that the HDMI setting is set to AMP/THROUGH.
• If the component is a DVI device, use a separate connection for the audio.
• Check the audio output settings of the source component.
