Video connections
For best picture quality we recommend making a HDMI connection, then
in declining order of quality, Component video connections, S-Video
connections and then Composite video connections.
To use HDMI (digital connection), see the next section below. For analog
video, use one of the following three types of connections:
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).

HDMI connections
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 video and support for various types of High Definition video content
make this the best connection type for picture quality. The two HDMI
inputs can be assigned to any one of the DVD, Video 1, Video 2, CD/Aux,
Tape/MD and 5.1 Direct inputs (see the ‘Assigning HDMI sources’
section of this manual for more information).
The 340R routes the HDMI outputs of DVD players, set-top boxes etc to
the TV/Monitor without any internal processing. Consult both the source
and TV's manuals to find out how to set the best modes for best picture
quality. As the 340R only routes/switches HDMI it is not involved in
these settings itself.

The sources will also normally supply audio to the TV/Monitor over the
HDMI connection, this will be separate from the audio that the 340R
decodes.
In order for the 340R itself to receive audio (Including surround-sound)
from HDMI (or DVI) sources a Co-axial (SPDIF) or Optical (Toslink) digital
audio connection must be made from each source to the 340R.
DVI switching can be supported simply 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. Again a Co-axial (SPDIF) or Optical (Toslink)
digital audio connection must be made from each source to the 340R for
it to be able to receive audio and decode surround sound etc.
Example: HDMI DVD player assigned to
DVD input.
Video player OR games console

Note: The 340R does not convert
between video types.
