Component Video Input

If you connect a video component to a component video input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2, you must assign “IN2” to the “BD/DVD” input selector.

Here are the default assignments.
