When the component is equipped with S-video jacks, you can connect the component to the S2 VIDEO jacks on this receiver. In addition, this receiver can convert standard video signals to S-video signals for output from the MONITOR OUT (S-VIDEO) jacks.

Note

You can listen to the sound of your TV by connecting your TV’s audio output jacks to the TV/SAT AUDIO IN jacks on the receiver. In this case, do not connect the TV’s video output jack to the TV/SAT VIDEO IN jack on the receiver. If you connect a separate satellite tuner, etc., connect both the audio and video output jacks to the receiver as shown above.
