In order to play the digital video and audio signals of a DVD-

the connected DVD player and monitor must be equipped

 

 

for a copyright protection system

called “HDCP” (High-

HDCP is a copy protection technology consisting of data

instructions.

 

 

Troubleshooting

• To output the sound from the TV, make the settings at menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup” – “TV”

 

• By default, the HDMI audio signals are output from the speakers connected to the AVR-788.

 

(vpage 25).

 

 

 

 

NOTE

Use a CPPM-compatible DVD player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright-protected by CPPM.

The AVR-788 cannot be controlled from another device via the HDMI cable.

The audio signals output from the HDMI connector (sampling frequency, bit rate, etc.) may be restricted by the connected device.

Video signals are not output properly when using devices that are not HDCP-compatible.

Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case, switch the DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.

If the menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup” setting (vpage 25) is set to “AMP”, the sound may be interrupted when the monitor’s power is turned off.

Use a cable on which the HDMI logo is indicated (a certified HDMI product) for connection to the HDMI connector. Normal playback may not be possible when using a cable other than one on which the HDMI logo is indicated (a non-HDMI-certified product).

If the monitor or DVD player does not support deep color, deep color signal transfer is not possible.

If the monitor or DVD player does not support xvYCC, xvYCC signal transfer is not possible.

When the AVR-788 and DVD player are connected using an HDMI cable, also connect the AVR-788 and monitor using an HDMI cable.

If the connected monitor or DVD player only has a DVI-D connector, use an HDMI/DVI converter cable. When using a DVI cable, no audio signals are transmitted.

Use a Deep Color compatible cable for connection to Deep Color compatible devices.

When connecting with an HDMI/DVI converter cable (adapter)

HDMI video signals are theoretically compatible with the DVI format.

When connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with a DVI-D connector, connection is possible using an HDMI/DVI converter cable, but depending on the combination of components in some cases the video signals will not be output.

When connecting using an HDMI/DVI converter adapter, the video signals may not be output properly due to poor connections with the connected cable, etc.
