Connecting Your Components—Continued

■HDMI Monitor Setting Set to No

With the HDMI Monitor setting set to No (see page 46), video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to your TV.

Composite video is upconverted to S-Video and S-Video is downconverted to composite video. Note that these conversions only apply to the MONITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.

The composite video, S-Video, and component video pass through their respective input sig- nals as they are.

On the TX-SR875, this signal flow also applies when the Monitor Out Resolution setting is set to Through (see page 46).

Video Signal Flow and the Resolution Setting

On the TX-SR875, when the HDMI Monitor setting is set to No (see page 46), if the Monitor Out Resolution setting is set to anything other than Through (see page 46), the video signal flow will be as shown here, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output.

The composite video, S-Video, and component video outputs pass through their respective analog input signals as they are. HDMI input signals are not output.

Audio Connection Formats

Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, analog multichannel, or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert dig- ital input signals for analog line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals con- nected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not output by the analog TAPE OUT.
