When making cable connections

•To avoid hum, do not lay connected cables over the top of the receiver.

•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.

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 Video Converter Setup on page 52 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 50), the converter gives priority to component, S-video, then composite (in that order).

•For optimal video performance, THX recommends switching video conversion (in Video Converter Setup on page 52) OFF.

Note

1You 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.
