All digital input jacks are compatible with digital signals withup to 96 kHz of sampling frequency.• This unit handles digital and analog signals independently. Thus audiosignals input at the digital jacks are not output at the analog AUDIO OUT(REC) jack.Video jacks and cable plugsVIDEO jacksFor conventional composite video signals transmitted viacomposite video cables.COMPONENT VIDEO jacksFor component signals, separated into the luminance (Y)and chrominance (P B, P R) video signals transmitted onseparate wires of component video cables.You can play back pictures by connecting your videomonitor and video source component to this unit usingHDMI connections.At that time, audio/video signals output from theconnected component (such as DVD player etc.) areoutput to the connected video monitor only when this unitis turned on and set to the input source (DVD or DTV/CBL).Furthermore, available audio/video signals depend on thespecification of the connected video monitor.
