HDMI Input
If you connect a video component to an HDMI input, you
must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if
you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to HDMI IN 2,
you must assign “HDMI2” to the “BD/DVD” input
selector.
If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver with an
HDMI cable, composite video and component video
sources can be upconverted
*
and output by the HDMI
output
*1
. You can set this for each input selector by
selecting the “-----” option, but the video signal coming
from the HDMI output depends on the assignments of
“Component Video Input” and “Composite Video
Input”. See “Video Connection Formats” for more
information on video signal flow and upconversion
(➔ page 100).
*1
This applies only when “Monitor Out” setting is set to other
than “Analog” (➔ page 55).
Here are the default assignments.
■ BD/DVD, CBL/SAT, STB/DVR, GAME1, GAME2,
PC, TV/CD, PHONO
` HDMI1, HDMI2, HDMI3, HDMI4, HDMI5,
HDMI6, HDMI7:
Select the input to which the component has been
connected.
` -----:
Output composite video and component video
sources from the HDMI output. The video signal
coming from the HDMI output depends on the
assignments of “Component Video Input” and
“Composite Video Input”.
*2
If you connect your personal computer to PC IN (Analog
RGB), you must assign “-----” to the “PC” input selector.
Each HDMI input cannot be assigned to two input selectors
or more. When HDMI1 - HDMI7 have already been
assigned, you must first set any unused input selectors to
“-----” or you will be unable to assign HDMI1 - HDMI7
to other input selectors.
Note
• For composite video and component video upconversion for the
HDMI output, the “Monitor Out” setting must be set to other
than “Analog” (➔ page 55), and the “HDMI Input” setting
must be set to “-----”. See “Connection Tips and Video Signal
Path” for more information on video signal flow and
upconversion (➔ page 100).
• If no video component is connected to the HDMI output (even if
the HDMI input is assigned), the AV receiver selects the video
source based on the setting of “Component Video Input” and
“Composite Video Input”.
• When an HDMI IN is assigned to an input selector as explained
here, the same HDMI IN will be set as a priority in the “Digital
Audio Input”. In this case, if you want to use the coaxial or
optical audio input, make the appropriate selection in the “Audio
Selector” setting (➔ page 70).
• Do not assign an HDMI IN to the TV/CD selector while “HDMI
Control(RIHD)” is set to “On” (➔ page 74), otherwise
appropriate CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) operation will
not be guaranteed.
• If you assign “-----” to an input selector that is currently
selected in “HDMI Through” (➔ page 74), the “HDMI
Through” setting will be automatically switched to “Off”.
•“AUX” is used only for input from the front panel.
Component Video Input
If you connect a video component to a component video
input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For
example, if you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2, you must assign “IN2” to
the “BD/DVD” input selector.
If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver with a
component video cable, you can set the AV receiver so that
composite video source is upconverted
*
and output by the
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
*1
. You can set
this for each input selector by selecting the “-----”
option.
*1
This applies only when “Monitor Out” setting is set to
“Analog” (➔ page 55).
