Video Input Connection - HDMI

The B&K surround receiver provides 6 HDMI A/V inputs. HDMI carries both audio and video, B&K allows options to process audio and video separately (please see the menu setup for further options). To connect an HDMI video source to the B&K, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI output on the source piece. Then connect the other end of the cable into the corresponding HDMI input on the receiver. Shown is an HDMI output on the source piece going into Input 9 on the B&K.

Video Input Connection - Component Video

The B&K surround receiver provides eight sets of component video inputs. Each component input cor- responds to a set of stereo analog inputs, optical digital inputs and coax digital inputs. For example, Component video input 8 would correspond to Analog Stereo input 8, Optical digital input 8 and Coax digital input 8. Shown above is a component video source going into Input 8 on the B&K.

Video Input Connection - S-Video

The B&K surround receiver provides eight sets of component video inputs. These inputs may be used with the S-Video to RCA adapter that is supplied with the receiver in order to upconvert an S-Video sig- nal to go into the component input. Connect the one end of the S-Video to RCA adapter to the S-Video output on the source piece. Then connect RCA cables from the adapter to the corresponding colored inputs on the B&K. Shown is an S-Video source connected to the S-Video to RCA adapter with RCA connections going into the blue (C) and green (Y) RCA inputs of Input 3.

Video Input Connection - Composite Video

The B&K surround receiver provides eight sets of component video inputs. These inputs may be used to upconvert a composite video signal to go into the component input. Connect the composite video output on the source piece using an RCA cable to the red colored input on the B&K. Shown is a com- posite video source with an RCA connection going into the red RCA input of Input 1.

Video Output and Scaling

The B&K surround receiver provides for 1 HDMI (720p/1080i/1080p) and 2 Component Main & a video output resolution of 720p, 1080i or 1080p (see Video Setup). B&K has multiple aspect control selec- tions: None, Pillar Box, Zoom, Stretch and Wide which allow optimum control over the viewing of video on a 16 x 9 display. Default video output resolution is set to 1080i, and HDMI is required for setting and viewing 1080p video output. Component video is not available while output is set to 1080p.
