Video Input Setup

HDMI Input Setup

If you connect a video component to HDMI IN, you must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if you connect your DVD player to HDMI IN 1, you must assign HDMI IN 1 to the DVD input selector.

If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver/AV amplifier with an HDMI cable, you can set the AV receiver/AV amplifier so that composite video, S-Video, and component video sources are upconverted* and out- put by the HDMI OUT. You can set this for each input selector by selecting the “- - - - -” option.

Each HDMI IN cannot be assigned to more than one input selector. When HDMI1 - HDMI4 have already been assigned (as shown in the Step 3 illus- tration), you must set first any unused input selectors to “- - - - -” or you will be unable to assign HDMI1 - HDMI4 to input selector.

Notes:

For composite video, S-Video, and component video upconversion for the HDMI OUT, the HDMI Input setting must be set to “- - - - -”. See page 23 for more information on video signal flow and upconversion.

When an HDMI IN is assigned to an input selector as explained here, the digital audio input for that input selector is automatically set to the same HDMI IN. See “Digital Input Setup” on page 44.

On the TX-SR706, the TUNER input selector cannot be assigned and is fixed at the “- - - - -” option.

This procedure can also be performed on the AV receiver/AV amplifier by using its [SETUP] button, arrow buttons, and [ENTER] button.
