About the video converter

When the video converter is enabled, all analog
video sources are output through all of the

MONITOR VIDEO OUT

jacks (HDMI and high-

definition progressive component video cannot

be converted).

1

See

Digital Video Converter

Setup

on page 65 to switch the video converter

on or off.

If several video components are assigned to
the same input function (see

The Input Assign

menu

on page 62), the converter gives priority

to component, S-video, then composite (in that
order).

Note

1 You must connect your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI/component video outputs when connecting these video sources. If
the video signal does not appear on your TV or plasma display, 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, use an (analog)
S-video or composite connection.
