[. . . ] AVR 350 AUDIO/VIDEO RECEIVER OWNER'S MANUAL SAFETY INFORMATION CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN 1. All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the product is operated. The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. All warnings on the product and in the operating instructions should be adhered to. [. . . ] Although the Source Input name will remain the same in the Input Setup menu, the new title will appear in the semi-OSD displays and the front-panel display as appropriate. NOTE: If your video display has an HDMI input, then you only need to connect the AVR's HDMI Output to the display. The AVR 350 transcodes analog source video signals up to 720p from composite, S-video or component video to the HDMI format, and is also capable of upscaling the signal up to 720p to match your display's capabilities. The only exception to this rule is for analog 1080i/p sources, which are not available at the HDMI Output, but 1080i signals are passed, as is, to the Component Video Outputs. If your source device is a Microsoft Xbox 360 or an older set-top box that outputs 1080i or higher video via component video outputs, then set the source to output 720p video, or connect the AVR's Component Video Monitor Outputs to your video display. If your display does not have an HDMI input, but does have component video inputs, you only need to connect the AVR's Component Video Monitor Outputs to the display. The AVR 350 transcodes composite and S-video signals to the component video format. Similarly, if your display's best-quality video input is S-video, you do not need to connect the Composite Video Monitor Output to the display; any composite video source signals will be converted to S-video format, and S-video signals may be converted to composite video format if your video display is not equipped with an S-video input. 37 INITIAL SETUP AUDIO IN: By default, the analog audio inputs are assigned at the factory to all sources, with the following exceptions: Table 6 ­ Default Digital Audio Assignments Source Input DVD Video 2 HDMI 1 HDMI 2 Default Digital Audio Input Coax 1 Optical 1 HDMI 1 HDMI 2 If you used a digital audio connection for another source, change this setting to assign the correct digital audio input to the source, even if you also connected the analog audio outputs of the source to the receiver. AUTO POLL: The Auto Poll feature is used when both an analog audio and digital audio connection have been made for one source device. If for some reason no digital signal is available, the AVR 350 will switch to the analog inputs for the source. This situation can occur with some cable or satellite television broadcasts, where some channels are broadcast with digital audio and others with analog audio. For some sources, the Auto Poll feature is unnecessary and may be undesirable. For example, if your DVD player is stopped, you may not want to use the analog audio signal or you may have decided not to connect analog audio. Move the cursor to this line, press the Set Button, and press the </ > Buttons until OFF appears, disabling the Auto Poll feature. With Auto Poll turned off, the receiver will only check for a signal at the audio input assigned to the source. NOTE: Since The Bridge is connected to the AVR using a dedicated audio connection, it isn't possible to select a different audio input for this source. The AM/FM/XM tuner and 6-/8Channel Inputs also use dedicated audio inputs, and it isn't possible to select a digital audio input for these sources. The next three lines in the Input Setup menu activate the tone controls, and may be skipped at this time. We recommend leaving the tone controls at their factory defaults for most listening, in order to enjoy the sound mix created by your favorite movie and music artists. However, if your room or speakers have unusual characteristics, or simply as a matter of personal preference, see the Tone Controls section on page 40 for more information. VIDEO MODE: This setting is used only with a fully analog video path (composite, S-video or component video). It has no effect on HDMI sources and video displays. Due to the design of some analog video displays and the nature of the video standard, there may be timing issues with the AVR.
