About the video converter

When the video converter is enabled, all analog video sources are output through all of the MONITOR VIDEO OUT jacks (HDMI and high-definition progressive

component video cannot be converted).1 See Video Converter Setup on page 48 to switch the video converter on or off.

If several video components are assigned to the same input function (see The Input Assign menu on page 46), the converter gives priority to component, S-video, then composite (in that order).

•For optimal video performance, THX recommends switching video conversion (in Video Converter Setup on page 48) OFF.

Note

1You must connect your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI/component video outputs when connecting these video sources. If the video signal does not appear on your TV or plasma display, try adjusting the resolution settings on your component or display. Note that some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not be converted. In this case, use an (analog) S-video or composite connection.
