If several video components are assigned to the same 
input function (see The Input Setup menu on page 40), 
the converter gives priority to HDMI, component, then 
composite (in that order).
• For optimal video performance, THX recommends 
switching Digital Video Conversion (in Setting the 
Video options
 on 
page 62) 
OFF.

Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by

Note
1 • An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content 
Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVI
HDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, 
however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.
• If you connect a component that is not compatible with HDCP, an HDCP ERROR message is displayed on the front panel display. Some 
components that are compatible with HDCP still cause this message to be displayed, but so long as there is no problem with displaying video 
this is not a malfunction.
• Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.
• This receiver supports SACD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. To take advantage of these formats, however, 
make sure that the component connected to this receiver also supports the corresponding format.
2 •  Use  a  High  Speed HDMI
®
 cable. If an HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI
®
 cable is used, it may not work properly.
• When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it may not operate properly.
3 Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.
4 •  HDMI  format digital audio transmissions require a longer time to be recognized. Due to this, interruption in the audio may occur when 
switching between audio formats or beginning playback.
• Turning on/off the device connected to this unit's HDMI OUT terminal during playback, or disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable during 
playback, may cause noise or interrupted audio.
