Note 1:
* In Option A, the audio signal from Coaxial input will not be used.
** For DVI input or output you will need to use an HDMI to DVI
adaptor or cable.
*** Analog L/R audio outputs are not available when the audio input
is Coaxial, please connect the analog audio from the source to
your amplier or active speakers directly.
Note 2:
• When the signal from an HDMI or DVI source is protected by
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), the HDMI or
DVI display also needs to support HDCP to be able to show the
content.
• When receiving content that has HDCP encryption, the Composite
Video and S-Video outputs will not display an image.
