Insignia NS-HTIB51A 5.1 Channel Home Theater System

Notes

The AV receiver does not support SCART plugs.

The AV receiver’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.

Caution

To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.

Deciding which connections to use

Audio connection formats

Audio components can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats:

Analog

Optical

Coaxial

HDMI

Audio Signal Flow Chart

Blu-ray Disc, DVD player, etc.

The receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose depends on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

Notes

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the receiver’s display when changing settings.

The on-screen setup menus are displayed when there is no video input, or the video input is 480p, 576p, 720p, 1080i, or 1080p.

Video connection formats

Video components can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, component video, or HDMI (for the best picture quality).

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the receiver does not convert between formats, so only outputs of the same format as the input will output the signal.

*2 - This setting is available when the Audio Return Ch setting is set to Auto. You must select the TV/CD input selector and your TV must support ARC function.

When choosing a connection format, note that the receiver does not convert digital input signals for analog line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not output by the analog VCR/DVR OUT.

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs are selected automatically in the following order of priority:

HDMI
