1 Make sure that the TV’s video input is set to this receiver (for example, if you connected this receiver to the VIDEO

jacks on your TV, make sure that the VIDEO input is now selected).

2 If you need to manually switch the input signal type press SIGNAL SEL (page 61).

3 • You may need to check the digital audio output settings on your DVD player or digital satellite receiver.

• Depending on your DVD player or source discs, you may only get digital 2 channel stereo and analog sound. In this

case, the receiver must be set to a multichannel listening mode (see Listening in surround sound on page 57 if you

need to do this) if you want multichannel surround sound.
