Important information regarding the HDMI connection

There are cases where you may not be able to route HDMI signals through this receiver (this

depends on the HDMI-equipped component you are connecting–check with the manufacturer for HDMI compatibility information).

If you aren’t receiving HDMI signals properly through this receiver (from your component), please try one of the following configurations when connecting up.

Configuration A

Use component video cables to connect the video output of your HDMI-equipped component to the receiver’s component video input. The receiver can then convert the analog component video signal to a digital HDMI signal for transmission to the display. For this configuration, use the most convenient connection (digital is recommended) for sending audio to the receiver. See the operating instructions for more on audio connections.

Note

The picture quality will change slightly during conversion.

Configuration B

Connect your HDMI-equipped component directly to the display using an HDMI cable. Then use the most convenient connection (digital is recommended) for sending audio to the receiver. See the operating instructions for more on audio connections. Set the display volume to minimum when using this configuration.

Note

If your display only has one HDMI terminal, you can only receive HDMI video from the connected component.

Depending on the component, audio output may be limited to the number of channels available from the connected display unit (for example audio output is reduced to 2 channels for a monitor with stereo audio limitations).

If you want to switch the input function, you’ll have to switch functions on both the receiver and your display unit.

Since the sound is muted on the display when using the HDMI connection, you must adjust the volume on the display every time you switch input functions.
