Playing a source with HDMI connection

•Use INPUT SELECT to select the HDMI input you’ve connected to (for example, HDMI 1).

You can also perform the same operation by using the INPUT SELECTOR dial on the front panel or by pressing HDMI on the remote control repeatedly.

•Set the HDMI parameter in Setting the Audio options on page 64 to THROUGH if you want to hear HDMI audio output from your TV or flat panel TV (no sound will be heard from this receiver).

•If the video signal does not appear on your TV or flat panel TV, 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 video connection.

Selecting the multichannel analog inputs

If you have connected a decoder or a DVD player as above, you must select the analog multichannel inputs for surround sound playback.1

1Make sure you have set the playback source to the proper output setting.

For example, you might need to set your DVD player to output multichannel analog audio.

2Use INPUT SELECT to select MULTI CH IN. You can also use the INPUT SELECTOR dial on the front panel.

•Depending on the DVD player you’re using, the analog output level of the subwoofer channel may be too low. In this case, the output level of the subwoofer can be increased by 10 dB in the Multi Ch In Setup in Other Setup. For details, see Multi Channel Input Setup on page 99.

Note

1 • When playback from the multichannel inputs is selected, only the volume and channel levels can be set.

•You can’t listen to your speaker B system during playback from the multichannel inputs.

•With MULTI CH IN inputs, it is possible to play pictures simultaneously. For details, see Multi Channel Input Setup on page 99.
