Analogue video input connections

Three types of analogue video connections can be made to the 551R:
1. Composite - connect with single 75 ohm video phono cable (RCA-RCA).
2. S-Video - connect with S-Video cable.
3. Component - connect with 75 ohm Component video cables (3RCA-3RCA)
For sources that support HDMI this is always the best choice.

For sources that only support analogue video for best picture quality we

recommend making Component video connections, then in declining order of

quality, S-Video connections and then Composite video connections.
The 551R is able to transcode i.e. upconvert analogue video to HDMI for the

main monitor/TV output.

HDMI (High-Definition Multi-Media Interface) is an all digital connection that

can carry both audio and video in one cable. Direct digital transfer of audio

and video and support for various types of High Definition video content and

high resolution audio make this the best connection type to use. The 4 HDMI

inputs can be assigned to the BD/DVD, Video 1, Video 2, CD/Aux/TV,

Tape/MD/CDR or 7.1 Direct sources (see the “Assigning HDMI sources”

section for more information).

DVI switching can be supported by using DVI to HDMI adaptors as these two

connection types are compatible. When using DVI only video will be passed

to the TV/Monitor and a Co-axial (S/P DIF) or Optical (Toslink) digital audio

connection must be made from each source to the 551R for it to be able to

receive audio and decode surround sound etc.
