Important Note Regarding Video Playback

The AV receiver can upscale component video, S-Video, and composite video sources for display on a TV connected to the HDMI OUT. However, if the picture quality of the source is poor, upscaling may make the picture worse or disappear altogether.

In this case, try setting the HDMI Output Resolution setting (page 82) to 480p or 720p. If that doesn’t improve the picture quality, try the following:

1.If the video source is connected to a component video input, connect your TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.

If the video source is connected to an S-Video input, connect your TV to an S-Video output.

If the video source is connected to a composite video input, connect your TV to a composite video output.

2.On the main menu, select “1. Input Assign,” and then select “1. HDMI Input.”

Select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “-----” (page 46).

3.On the main menu, select “1. Input Assign,”

and then select “2. Component Video Input” (page 47):

If the video source is connected to COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1, select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “IN1.”

If the video source is connected to COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2, select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “IN2.”

If the video source is connected to an S-Video input or composite video input, select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “-----”.
