CONNECTIONS 2: Video Cable Connection

This receiver is equipped with three types of the video terminals—S-video, composite video, and component video, and the signals coming into this receiver through one type of video jacks can output only through the jack of the same type.

•When using the AV COMPULINK remote control system, set the component video input for the DVD player and the DBS tuner correctly (see “7 Setting the Component Video Input” on page 25); otherwise, the correct input for this receiver will not be selected on the TV.
