Connection Tips and Video Signal Path

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video component can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, component video or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output.

The composite video and component video outputs carry their respective input signals as they are.

When you connect an audio component to an HDMI or COMPONENT input, you must assign that input to an input selector (page 41).

Signal Selection

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, component video, composite video.

However, for component video only, regardless of whether a component video signal is actually present, if a component video input is assigned to the input selector, that component video input will be selected. And if no component video input is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no component video signal being present.

In the Signal Selection Example shown on the right, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs. However, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and the video is output by the HDMI outputs.
