HDMI Input
If you connect a video component to an HDMI input, you
must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if
you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to
HDMI IN 2
,
you must assign “
HDMI2
” to the “
BD/DVD
” input
selector.
If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver with an
HDMI cable, composite video and component video
sources can be upconverted
*
and output by the HDMI
output
*1
. You can set this for each input selector by
selecting the “
- - - - -
” option, but the video signal coming
from the HDMI output depends on the assignments of
“
Component Video Input
” and “
Composite Video
Input
”. See “Video Connection Formats” for more
information on video signal flow and upconversion
(
➔
page 100
).
*1
This applies only when “
Monitor Out
” setting is set to other
than “
Analog
” (
➔
page 55
).
Here are the default assignments.

connected.

:
Output composite video and component video
sources from the HDMI output. The video signal
coming from the HDMI output depends on the
assignments of “
Component Video Input
” and
“
Composite Video Input
”.

If you connect your personal computer to
PC IN
(Analog
RGB), you must assign “
- - - - -
” to the “
PC
” input selector.
Each HDMI input cannot be assigned to two input selectors
or more. When
HDMI1
-
HDMI7
have already been
assigned, you must first set any unused input selectors to
“
- - - - -
” or you will be unable to assign
HDMI1
-
HDMI7
to other input selectors.
Note
• For composite video and component video upconversion for the
HDMI output, the “
Monitor Out
” setting must be set to other
than “
Analog
” (
➔
page 55
), and the “
HDMI Input
” setting
must be set to “
- - - - -
”. See “Connection Tips and Video Signal
Path” for more information on video signal flow and
upconversion (
➔
page 100
).
• If no video component is connected to the HDMI output (even if
the HDMI input is assigned), the AV receiver selects the video
source based on the setting of “
Component Video Input
” and
“
Composite Video Input
”.
• When an
HDMI IN
is assigned to an input selector as explained
here, the same
HDMI IN
will be set as a priority in the “
Digital
Audio Input
”. In this case, if you want to use the coaxial or
optical audio input, make the appropriate selection in the “
Audio
Selector
” setting (
➔
page 70
).
• Do not assign an
HDMI IN
to the
TV/CD
selector while “
HDMI
Control(RIHD)
” is set to “
On
” (
➔
page 74
), otherwise
appropriate CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) operation will
not be guaranteed.
• If you assign “
- - - - -
” to an input selector that is currently
selected in “
HDMI Through
” (
➔
page 74
), the “
HDMI
Through
” setting will be automatically switched to “
Off
”.
• “
AUX
” is used only for input from the front panel.
Component Video Input
If you connect a video component to a component video
input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For
example, if you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2
, you must assign “
IN2
” to
the “
BD/DVD
” input selector.
If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver with a
component video cable, you can set the AV receiver so that
composite video source is upconverted
*
and output by the
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
*1
. You can set
this for each input selector by selecting the “
- - - - -
”
option.
*1
This applies only when “
Monitor Out
” setting is set to
“
Analog
” (
