■“Monitor Out” setting set to “Analog”

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video, S-Video and PC IN (Analog RGB) sources being upconverted for the component video output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s

COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT to your TV. Composite video is upconverted to S-Video and S-Video is downconverted to composite video. Note that these con- versions only apply to the MONITOR OUT V and S out- puts, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.

The composite video, S-Video and component video out- puts pass through their respective input signals as they are.

This signal flow also applies when the “Resolution” set- ting is set to “Through” (➔ 48).

Audio component can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, analog multi- channel, optical, coaxial, or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert digital input signals for ana- log line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not out- put by the analog VCR/DVR OUT.

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of pri- ority: HDMI, digital, analog.
