Video Jacks
• When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.
• The signals input to the color difference (component) video jacks are not outputs to the VIDEO output jack (yellow) or the S-Video output jack.
• Some video sources with component video outputs are labeled Y, C
B, CR or Y, Pb, Pr or Y, R-Y, B-Y. These terms all refer to component video
color difference output.
DVD player
Connecting a DVD player
DVD IN jacks
• Connect the DVD player’s color difference (component) video output jacks
(COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT) to the COMPONENT DVD IN jack using 75 Ω/ohms
coaxial video pin-plug cords.
• In the same way, another video source with component video outputs such as a TV/DBS
tuner, etc., can be connected to the TV/DBS color difference (component) video jacks.
Monitor TV
Connecting a monitor TV
MONITOR OUT jack
• Connect the TV’s color difference (component) video input jacks (COMPONENT VIDEO
INPUT) to the COMPONENT MONITOR OUT jack using 75 Ω/ohms coaxial video pin-
plug cords.
• The color difference input jacks may be indicated differently on
some TVs, monitors or video components (“CR, CB and Y”, “R-
Y, B-Y and Y”, “Pr, Pb and Y”, etc.). For details, carefully read the
operating instructions included with the TV or other component.
MONITOR OUT jacks
The AVR-1705/685 is equpped with a function for up-converting video signals.
Because of this, the AVR-1705/685’s MONITOR OUT jack can be connected to
the monitor (TV) with a set of cables offering a higher quality connection,
regardless of how the player and the AVR-1705/685’s video input jacks are
connected.
Generally speaking, connections using the component video jacks offer te
highest quality playback, followed by connections using the S-Video jacks, then
connections using regular video jacks (yellow).
NOTE:
Down-converting from the component video signal to the S-Video and
composite video signal is not possible, so when not using the component video
monitor output terminal connect the player using the S-Video or composite
video input terminal.
Cautions on the video conversion function:
When the component video terminals are used to connect the AVR-1705/685
with a TV (or monitor, projector, etc.) and the video (yellow) or S-Video terminals
are used to connect the AVR-1705/685 with a VTR, depending on the
combination of the TV and VTR the picture may flicker in the horizontal direction,
be distorted, be out of sync not display at all when playing video tapes.
If this happens, connect a commercially available video stabilizer, etc., with a
TBC (time base corrector) function between the AVR-1705/685 and the VTR, or
if your VTR has a TBC function, turn it on.
