Notes on HDMI connections
• An audio signal input to the HDMI IN jack
is output from the speaker output jack,
HDMI OUT jack and PRE OUT jack. It is
not output from any other audio jack.
• A video signal input to the HDMI IN jack is
only output from the HDMI OUT jack. The
video input is not output from the VIDEO
OUT jack, S VIDEO OUT jack, or
MONITOR OUT jack.
• Check the HDMI AUDIO setting (page 70)
if the sound is not output from the TV or you
cannot play back multi channel software.
When you want to listen to audio from the
TV speaker, set HDMI AUDIO to TV+AMP
in the CUSTOMIZE menu.
• The multi/stereo area audio signals of a
Super Audio CD are not output.
• Be sure to turn on the receiver when video
and audio signals of a playback component
are being output to a TV through this
receiver. Unless the power is on, neither
video nor audio signals will be transmitted.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack
may be suppressed by the connected
component. Check the setup of the
connected component if an image is poor or
the sound does not come out of a component
connected via the HDMI cable.
• When the connected component is not
compatible with copyright protection
technology, the image and/or the sound from
the HDMI OUT jack may be distorted or
may not be output.
In this case, check the specifications of the
connected component.
• Set the resolution of the image of the
playback component to 720p or 1080i when
you output 96kHz multi channel sound over
an HDMI connection.
• Refer to the operating instructions of each
component connected for details.
• We don’t recommend using an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable. When you connect an
HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D
component, the sound and/or the image may
not be output. Connect other audio codes or
digital connecting cords, then set HDMI
VIDEO ASSIGN (page 64) when the sound
is not output correctly.
