While a cable is connected to the HDMI Output jack, the Component Video Output is disabled. You can’t view video from both the HDMI Output and the Component Video Output at the same time.

The yellow video jack sends a picture only if the HD DVR’s video output format is set to “480i.” See page 29 for more about video
