Resolution to Display: This setting reflects the video output resolution, which is dependent upon the capabilities of your TV or video display.
ssIf you connected your TV to the AVR’s HDMI Monitor Out connector, the two devices will communicate with each other, and the AVR will automatically select the best available video output resolution. In almost all cases, you should leave the resolution set to the AVR’s automatic selection. (You can override this automatic selection if your video display’s native resolution is different from the AVR’s automatic selection.)
ssIf you connected your TV to the AVR’s Composite Video Monitor Out connector, you must set the resolution to “480i” (AVR 3700/AVR 2700) or to “576p” (AVR 370/AVR 270) to view any content.
NOTE: If your connected TV is 4K video capable, the AVR will automatically pass 4K video sources through to the TV in their native resolution and will upscale non-4K video sources up to 4K.
Audio Effects: This submenu allows you to adjust the Dolby Volume and Dolby PLII/IIx/ IIz settings, the bass and treble tone controls, the LFE trim and the Equalization On/Off setting for each source independently. We suggest leaving this submenu at its default settings and returning to it later if your system requires fine-tuning. See Audio Effects Button, on page 34, for more information.
Video Modes: This submenu allows you to make picture adjustments for each source independently. We suggest leaving the settings at their factory defaults. You should make picture adjustments to your video display first and use this menu only for fine-tuning. See Video Processing, on page 34, for more information.
Surround Modes: This submenu lets you program surround modes for movies, music and games for each source independently. Digital surround signals, such as Dolby Digital and DTS bitstreams, are automatically played in their native formats, although you may change the surround mode. See Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 33, for more information.
Audio Format from Source: This line is informational only. When a digital program is playing, its format will be identified here. When analog audio programs are playing, this line displays ANALOG.
Resolution from Source: This line is informational only. It indicates the resolution of the video output by the source device.
HDMI Bypass: This setting allows you to bypass the AVR’s internal video processing for proper display of 3D video content and of source devices (such as some game consoles) where the AVR's video processing can create delays that can cause synchronization errors between the sound and picture. There are two available settings:
ss/N !LWAYS BYPASSESYTHEA!62gS INTERNALNVIDEORPROCESSING
ss!UTO !UTOMATICALLYABYPASSES THEH!62gS INTERNAL VIDEODPROCESSINGNWHEN $ CONTENTTIS detected.
IMPORTANT: Once the AVR automatically switches into the bypass mode upon detecting 3D video content, it will not automatically switch out of the bypass mode when it detects conventional 2D video content. To turn the HDMI Bypass off you must cycle the AVR into the Standby mode and then turn it on again.
Repeat Steps 1 – 4, assigning a new 3D source for each of your 3D-capable source devices.
Notes:
ssWhen using your AVR with these new settings, be sure to press the correct source selectors for your 2D and 3D sources.
ssIf you are viewing 3D sources when an HDMI Bypass input is active, the on- screen indications for volume level will not appear. This is normal, since all video processing is removed in the HDMI Bypass mode.
ssIf your video sources are always operating at 720p or higher resolution, you may find the HDMI Bypass mode acceptable for normal 2D viewing as well as for 3D viewing. In this case, you may find it more convenient to use the 3D sources at all times.
ssIf you see side-by-side or top-and-bottom images while watching a 3D program, manually switch to the HDMI Bypass mode.
Change Name: This selection lets you change the display name for the source, which is useful if your source’s device type is different from the source’s preprogrammed name. Select this line and use the Up/Down buttons to scroll forward or reverse through the alphanumeric characters. When the desired character appears, use the Left/Right buttons to move the cursor to the next or previous position. Move the cursor again to leave a blank space. When you have finished, press the OK Button. The name will appear on the AVR’s front panel and throughout the on-screen menu system.
Adjust Lip Sync: This selection lets you resynchronize the audio and video signals from a source to eliminate a “lip sync” problem. Lip-sync issues can occur when the video portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the video display. When you make a Lip Sync adjustment, the Lip Sync menu appears by itself, enabling you to view the video while listening to the audio. Use the Left/Right buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms.

15 ms
Zone 2 Audio: This setting determines the audio source for Zone 2 of a multizone system. Select the analog audio input the source is connected to. Digital audio is not available to the multizone system.
To configure the next source, press the Back/Exit button, then return to the Setup Source line of the Main Menu. When you have finished configuring all sources, press the Back/ Exit button to clear the menus from view.
Set Up the Network
To play MP3 or WMA media located on DLNA-compatible devices connected to the network, use the AVR’s internal Internet radio tuner or listen to sources via AirPlay, the AVR must be connected to your home network and you must join them with the network. (If your home network is Wi-Fi, the AVR 3700 and AVR 370 can connect to it wirelessly.)
