Connecting Components without HDMI

If your AV component does not have HDMI jack, use an
available jack of your component for cable connection with
this unit. Just as the HDMI jacks, other jacks on this unit
have a preassigned input selector button on the front panel.
See the name of the input selector button shown with the
jack when connecting the device.

¼
with MC type cartridge between the unit and the turntable by
connecting it to the 2 TV/CD jack. For details, refer to the turntable's
instruction manual.
¼ If the turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the GND terminal of this ¼
unit. If connecting the ground wire increases noise, disconnect it.

Video signals input to the composite video input
jack or the COMPONENT VIDEO input jacks will be
upconverted to HDMI signals and then output from
the HDMI output jack.
¼ When the video signals input to the COMPONENT VIDEO ¼
jacks are upconverted and output from the HDMI output
jack, their resolution will be fixed to 480i. Set the output
resolution of the player to 480i/576i. If the input has 480p
or higher resolution, a message prompting you to change
the resolution setting will appear. If your player does not
support 480i/576i output, use the composite video jack.
¼ If multiple video signal inputs are put into one input ¼
system, the output will be made in the order of HDMI,
component video, and composite video. Note that it is not
possible to convert digital audio input signals to analog or
vice versa.
