Using the component video
jacks
Component video should deliver superior
picture quality when compared to composite
video. A further advantage (if your source and
TV are both compatible) is progressive-scan
video, which delivers a very stable, flicker-free
picture. See the manuals that came with your
TV and source component to check whether
they are compatible with progressive-scan
video.
Important
• If you connect any source component to
the receiver using a component video
input, you must also have your TV
connected to this receiver’s
COMPONENT
VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks.
1Connect the component video outputs of
your source to a set of component video
inputs on this receiver.
Use a three-way component video cable for the
connection.
2If necessary, assign the component video
inputs to the input source you’ve connected.
This only needs to be done if you didn’t connect
according to the following defaults:
•
Component 1
–
DVD
•
Component 2
–
TV
•
Component 3
–
DVR
See
Assigning the component video inputs
on
page 65 for more on this.
3 Connect the COMPONENT VIDEO
MONITOR OUT jacks on this receiver to the
component video inputs on your TV or
monitor.
Use a three-way component video cable.
Connecting using HDMI
If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP)
equipped component, you can connect it to
this receiver using a commercially available
HDMI cable.
The HDMI connection transfers uncompressed
digital video, as well as almost every kind of
digital audio that the connected component is
compatible with, including DVD-Video, DVD-
Audio (see below for limitations), Video CD/
Super VCD, CD and MP3.
The illustration shows the VSX-818V, but
connections for the VSX-918V are the same.
