Connecting AV Components—Continued

Making HDMI Connections

You can connect components with HDMI outputs to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI IN 1 and IN 2 inputs and connect your HDMI TV to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT. You need HDMI cables to make HDMI connections.

Note:

By default, the HDMI1 and HDMI2 inputs are assigned to the VCR/DVR and CBL/SAT input selectors. To change these assignments, see “HDMI Input Setup” on page 37.

Video Signals

Digital video signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the HDMI OUT for display on your TV.

Audio Signals

Digital audio signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the speakers connected to the HTX-22HD. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI OUT.

Hint!

To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the Audio TV Out setting to On (see page 68), and set your DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

Notes:

Set the output resolution of your DVD player so that it matches the resolution of your TV before starting playback.

The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and dis- plays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

To listen to an HDMI source component through the HTX-22HD, you must configure your system so that video from the HDMI source component can be displayed on your TV (i.e., on your TV, select the HDMI input that’s connected to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT). This is necessary because a component identification check has to be performed on your TV before an HDMI source component can output any signals. If your TV is off or set to a different input source, the HTX-22HD may produce no sound or the sound may be distorted.

The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.
