Important Note for the Use of
SCART-Cinch Adapters:
When video sources are connected to the TV directly with a SCART cable, specific control sig- nals apart from Audio/Video signals will be fed to the TV. These specific signals are: With all video sources, the signal for automatic input selection that switches the TV automatically to the appropriate input as soon as the video source is started. And with DVD players, the sig- nals automatically turning the TV to 16:9 format (with switchable 4:3 TVs) and turning the RGB video decoder of the TV on or off, depending on the DVD player´s setting. With any adapter cable, these control signals will be lost and the appro- priate setting of the TV must be made manually.
Note for RGB signal with SCART:
If you use a unit providing RGB signals on a SCART output (as e.g. most DVD players do) and you want to use that RGB signal, this SCART

output must be connected directly to your TV. Although the AVR 5000 RDS can switch three- way video signals (like component signals Y/Pb/Pr), most TVs need separate sync signals for RGB (also with SCART) that cannot be switched and provided by the AVR 5000.
RGB signals can be pathed through
the AVR5000 only when no separate sync signal is needed (see 4th ”Video Connection Note” on page 16).
