• This receiver is HDCP-compatible. Check that the components you are connecting are also HDCP-

 

compatible. If they are not, please connect them using the component, S-video or composite video jacks.

 

• Depending on the connected source component, it’s possible that it will not work with this receiver (even

 

if it is HDCP-compatible). In this case, connect using the component, S-video or composite video jacks

 

between source and receiver.

quality may just be poor (with some video game units, for example). The picture quality may also depend on

 

the settings, etc. of your display device. Switch off the video converter and reconnect the source and display

 

device using the same type of connection (component, S-video or composite), then start playback again.

consult the component or monitor manual or contact the manufacturer for support.
