Note
The picture and audio input signals connected to a
terminal specified in “Monitor out” (p. 37) cannot be
output from “PROG OUT” terminals.
However, audio output can be obtained from “DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT” terminal.
To prevent howling and image oscillation, set the
“Monitor out” setting when connecting the VCR with
loop-connection. (p. 26, 37)
When equipment (DVD, etc.) is connected to HDMI
or COMPONENT terminals, no video signals can be
passed through PROG OUT terminal.
When receiving digital channel signals, all digital
formats are down-converted to composite NTSC video
to be output through the PROG OUT terminals.
* Please see p. 24-25 for setup when using an external
analog audio cable with an HDMI to DVI cable.
