Note
• When connecting optical cables, be careful when
inserting the plug not to damage the shutter protecting
the optical socket.
• When storing optical cable, coil loosely. The cable may be
damaged if bent around sharp corners.
• You can also use a standard RCA video cable for coaxial
digital connections.
Video cables
Standard RCA video cables
These cables are the most common type of video connection
and are used to connect to the composite video terminals.
The yellow plugs distinguish them from cables for audio.
Component video cables
Use component video cables to get the best possible color
reproduction of your video source. The color signal of the TV
is divided into the luminance (
Y
) signal and the color (
P
B
and
P
R
) signals and then output. In this way, interference between
the signals is avoided.
About the video converter
The video converter ensures that all video sources are output
from
HDMI OUT
terminal. The only exception is HDMI: since
this resolution cannot be downsampled, you must connect
your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI video outputs when
connecting this video source.
Note
• If several video components are assigned to the same
input function, the converter gives priority to HDMI,
component, then composite (in that order).
• If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try
adjusting the resolution settings on your component or
display. Note that some components (such as video game
units) have resolutions that may not be converted. In this
case, try switching Video Converter
OFF
(see
Video
Converter
on page 41).
• The signal input resolutions that can be converted from
the component video input for the HDMI output are 480i/
576i, 480p/576p, 720p and 1080i. 1080p signal cannot be
converted.
