Converting video signals into HDMI signals
This receiver can convert composite video, S-video, and component video signals into HDMI signals and transmit the
converted signals through the HDMI MONITOR OUT terminal. To use this function, you need to make the following procedure
beforehand:
1 Connect your TV and this receiver with the HDMI cable.
2 Set the video output setting (see page 34) to "HDMI."
3 Set the video input setting (see page 21) according to the connection method for each video component.
NOTES
• When playing back audio and video with the HDMI connection, the HDMI lamp on the front panel is lit.
• Select "HDMI" for the audio input setting (see page 21) when you enjoy sound with the HDMI connection.
• With input video signals converted into HDMI signals, the playback picture may be distorted when you change the playback mode (fast-
forward, rewind, or pause, for example).
• When connecting a VCR or DBS to the HDMI VCR(DBS) IN terminal, set the HDMI select setting (see page 34) correctly according to the
equipment you connect. If you do not, you cannot view the playback picture on the TV.
• By using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable, you can connect the source components or the TV with DVI output. When connecting those
components or TV, change the audio input setting to other than "HDMI." (See page 21.)
• This receiver is compatible with standard video formats. If non-standard video formats are coming in, the picture may not appear properly on
TV.
• The picture on the TV may not be the same aspect ratio as the ratio set on the source components.
• HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an interface which makes it possible to transmit digital audio and video signals with one cable.
However, when connecting a TV to this receiver with an HDMI cable, the sound coming into this receiver is not transmitted to the speakers of
the TV. You can enjoy sound only from the speakers connected to this receiver.
• When connecting a TV to the receiver with an HDMI cable, the following may cause noise or interrupt the sound and picture:
– Turning a source component on or off
– Changing the audio or video input setting of this receiver frequently
In this case, turn the receiver off, then turn it on again.
• When enjoying multi-channel PCM sound and selecting "HDMI" for the audio input setting (see page 21), some functions are not available. See
page 11 for details.
• When you enjoy HDCP contents, sound and picture may not be transmitted to the speakers and TV for a few seconds in the beginning for
confirmation.
