One-Touch DVD Play

Simply by starting playback on the DVD player, you can enjoy the DVD playback without setting other switches manually.

When you press PLAY on the remote control supplied for this receiver for operating the DVD player, the receiver automatically turns on and changes the Zone 1 source or Zone 2 source, depending on the ZONE 1/ZONE 2 (LEARN/TRANSMIT) selector setting on the remote control, to the appropriate input—“DVD” or “DVD MULTI” as the Zone 1 source, and “DVD” as the Zone 2 source.

For Zone 1 operations: The Zone 1 TV automatically turns on and changes the input mode to the appropriate position so that you can view the playback picture.

•When the DVD player is connected through the analog input jacks on this receiver (and analog input is selected), the receiver automatically turns on and changes the source to “DVD” or “DVD MULTI.”

–If the receiver is already turned on with the ZONE 2 ON/OFF lamp on the unit lit, and Zone 2 source name is shown on the display, the receiver changes the Zone 2 source to “DVD.” In this case, the Zone 2 TV will not turn on.

•When the DVD player is connected through the digital input terminal on this receiver (and digital input is selected), the receiver automatically turns on and changes the Zone 1 source to “DVD.”

–If the receiver is already turned on with the ZONE 2 ON/OFF lamp on the unit lit, and Zone 2 source name is shown on the display, the receiver changes the Zone 2 source to “DVD.” (If no analog connection is made for the DVD player, no sound comes out of the Zone 2 front speakers).

Automatic Selection of TV’s Input Mode (Only for Zone 1 Operations)

•When you select “TV” as the Zone 1 source to play on the receiver, the Zone 1 TV automatically changes the input mode to the TV tuner so that you can watch the Zone 1 TV.

•When you select “DVD,” “DVD MULTI,” “VCR 1,” “VCR 2,”

“VIDEO” or “DBS” as the Zone 1 source to play on the receiver, the Zone 1 TV automatically changes the input mode to the appropriate position (either Video Input 1 or Video Input 2) so that you can view the playback picture.

Notes:

•When you select “TV” as the source on the receiver, you cannot see the menu on the TV screen since the AV COMPU LINK remote control system automatically changes the TV’s input mode to the TV tuner.

If you do not mind stopping listening to the TV sounds, you can then show the on-screen displays after changing the TV’s input mode to the appropriate position (either Video Input 1 or Video Input 2) the receiver is connected to.

•This function does not work when you connect this receiver and the TV with the AV COMPU LINK EX terminal using the component video cables. To use this function, connect this receiver and the TV using the S-video or composite video cables.
