Video Conversion Function

This function automatically converts various formats of video signals input to the AVR-5308CI into the format used to output the video signals from the AVR-5308CI to a monitor.

The AVR-5308CI’s video input/output circuitry is compatible with the following four types of video signals:

Digital video signals: HDMI

Analog video signals: Component video, S-Video and Video

When not using this function, connect a monitor output with the same type of connector as the video input connector.

The resolution of the HDMI input-compatible monitor connected to the AVR-5308CI can be checked at GUI menu “Information” – “HDMI Information” – “Monitor1” or “Monitor2” (vpage 55).

NOTE

For optimum video performance, THX recommends that you set the conversion mode to “OFF” to use video signals pass through system without up conversion.

Example: The video input signals from the component video can be enjoyed through the video output signals from the component video.

HDMI signals cannot be converted into analog signals.

1080p component input video signals cannot be output to anything other than component video connectors.

480p/576p, 1080i and 720p component video input signals cannot be converted into S-Video or Video format.

When using the component video output connectors for connection to the ZONE2 monitor, the ZONE2’s on-screen display is not displayed.

When a non-standard video signal from a game machine or some other source is input, the video conversion function might not operate.
