The Input Assign menu

You only need to make settings in the Input Assign menu if you didn’t hook up your equipment according to the default settings for the component video inputs.

•Default settings:

-Component-1:DVD

-Component-2:DVR (DVR/BDR)

Important

•If you connect any source component to the receiver using a component video input, you should also have your TV connected to this receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT output (down converting component video is not possible after assigning an input).

If you didn’t make component video connections according to the defaults above, you must assign the numbered input to the component you’ve connected (or else you may see the video signal of a different component). For more on this, see Using the component video jacks on page 16.
