3 AUDIO SOURCES
These four buttons select audio signals from among the defined audio-only
inputs. (See define source buttons in The Setup Menu section of this
manual.) To use these selection buttons, choose the appropriate
, below), and then make your selection.

Selecting any audio source after having selected a video source will cause
the newly-selected audio signal to "override" the audio portion of the video
selection (leaving the video signal unaffected). Thus, to enjoy a simulcast,
merely select the desired picture followed by the desired sound. To revert
to the regularly-used sound of the video input, just press the video input
button again.
4 "MORE" SOURCES
With five A/V sources and four audio source buttons, most people will find
the AVP's source selection capabilities more than adequate. However, the
AVP provides a total of fifteen audio inputs (seven analog and eight digital),
in order to accommodate differing connection standards that may be used
on your source components. In addition, there are either six (composite
version) or nine (S-video version) video inputs available for use. Rather than
allowing these extra connectors to remain unused after the initial nine pri-
mary source buttons are defined, we have provided a
cess additional, less frequently used sources.
To define additional sources that will be accessed by the more button, sim-
ply use the menu system to define "more" sources: either
. (See set more buttons in The Setup Menu section of this
audio-only
manual.) Y ou can teach a learning remote control a direct-access command
for any of these "extra" sources, or use the
them.
5 PATH BUTTON AND INDICATORS
Pressing this button cycles among your various signal path options:
• — the main room/home theater; this path determines
main
which video and audio sources are sent to the Main outputs on
the back of the AVP . Sources selected for the main path are indi-
cated in yellow on the front panel LEDs.
• — determines which video and audio sources are sent to
remote
the Remote outputs on the back of the AVP , to be sent to another
system elsewhere in the house. These sources are indicated in
red on the front panel LEDs. The remote path may also be used
as a secondary Record Output path if necessary .
• — the audio and video signals for both main and remote
both
paths may be selected at the same time, for your convenience; as
when entertaining, perhaps, for whole-house background music.
Sources selected for "both" main and remote paths will be indi-
cated by green LEDs.
• record — determines which video and audio sources are sent to
the various record output jacks. The source selected for the
record path is indicated on the front panel in red LEDs. As a
safety measure, the AVP can provide protection against the selec-
tion of any recordable device as its own source, to avoid feedback
loops. The AVP can also display the words
as a warning when you accidently begin to set up such a loop.
