Connection Tips and Video Signal Path

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format

you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

Video component can be connected by using any one of the

following video connection formats: composite video, PC IN

(Analog RGB), component video or HDMI, the latter

offering the best picture quality.

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown,

with composite video, PC IN (Analog RGB) and component

video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output.

The composite video and component video outputs carry

their respective input signals as they are.

When you connect an audio component to an HDMI or

COMPONENT input, you must assign that input to an input

selector (➔page 44).

Tip

• For optimal video performance, THX recommends that video

signals pass through the system without upconversion (e.g.,

component video input passing through to component video output).

■Signal Selection

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will

be selected automatically in the following order of priority:

HDMI, component video, composite video.

However, for component video only, regardless of whether a

component video signal is actually present, if a component

video input is assigned to the input selector, that component

video input will be selected. And if no component video input

is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no

component video signal being present.

In the Signal Selection Example shown on the right, video

signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video

inputs. However, the HDMI signal is automatically selected

as the source and the video is output by the HDMI outputs.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to

the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.
