CONNECTING HDMI COMPONENTS

HDMI JACK

This unit has four HDMI inputs and two HDMI output. It can send digital video and audio signals from DVDs and other sources directly to a display. It minimizes signal degradation caused by analog conversion so that high quality images can be enjoyed.

This unit is also capable of converting analog video signals (Composite Video, S-Video, Component Video) for HDMI output.

Select an input source from the OSD menu system. (See page 43, 44)

Notes:

•When the HDMI output is connected to a display monitor that does not support HDCP, signals are not output. To view images in HDMI, it is necessary to connect to a display that supports HDCP.

•There may be no image output if connected to a TV or display that is not compatible with the above format.

•Refer to the instruction manual of the TV or display to be connected to the unit for detailed information regarding the HDMI terminal.

*HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection

CONNECTING HDMI COMPONENTS

An HDMI cable (sold separately) is used to connect the HDMI jack on the unit with the HDMI jack on a DVD player, TV, projector or other component. To transmit multichannel audio via HDMI, the connected player must support multichannel audio transmission through its HDMI jack.

HDMI video streaming is compatible with DVI in principle. Therefore, it is possible to connect to a TV or monitor that has a DVI terminal using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable or plug. When connecting to a DVI terminal, connect the audio signal separately.

Notes:

•Some HDMI components can be controlled over the HDMI cable, but this unit cannot control other components this way.

•When connected to a monitor (i.e., TV, projector, etc.) that does not support HDCP, video and audio are not output.

•DVI cables come with 24-pin and 29-pin plugs. This unit supports 24-pin DVI-D cables; 29-pin DVI cables cannot connect to it.

•Some source devices such as DVD players or set top box do not support HDMI repeater operations like those of the unit. In such case, pictures are not properly projected on monitors such as TVs and projectors.

•When multiple components are connected to this unit, turn power to unused components off to prevent interference between them.

•Disconnecting or connecting cables with the power on can damage the equipment. Turn the power off before disconnecting or connecting cables.

•Some DVD-Audio disks disable downmixing. These types of disks are not played back correctly unless the left, center, right and surround left and right speakers, and subwoofer are connected.

•If a DVD player that does not support HDMI 1.1 or later is connected to the unit, multi channel PCM playback is not possible even with DVD-Audio disks.

•If an Super Audio CD player that does not support HDMI 1.2 or later is connected to the unit, DSD playback is not possible even with Super Audio CD.

(*DSD: Direct Stream Digital)

•The following functions are not available when the unit is connected to equipment that does not support HDMI 1.3a.

•Deep Color

•xvYCC

•Bitstream audio signal decoding, as for Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, and so on

For details, refer to the user’s manuals of connected equipment.

•If a DVD player or other device with DVI output is connected to the unit, a separate audio cable (optical- digital, coaxial digital or analog) is needed for the audio signals. In this case, select the connected audio input as explained in “1-1 FUNC INPUT SETUP”. (See page 43)

•Multi channel PCM signals and audio signals of 64 kHz or higher that are input from the HDMI jack are not output from the DIGITAL OUT jacks.

•Depending on the quiality of the cable used, the HDMI signal may be affected by noise.
