Before using synchronization

Once you have finished all connections and settings, you must:
1 Put all components into standby mode.
2 Turn the power on for all components, with the power for the TV being turned on last.
3 Choose the HDMI input to which the TV is connected to this receiver, and see if video
output from connected components displays properly on the screen or not.
4 Check whether the components connected to all HDMI inputs are properly displayed.

About synchronized operations

Important
! Synchronized operations are enabled when Control Mode is set to ON after setting Control in HDMI Setup to
ON. For details, see HDMI Setup on page 82 .
The Control with HDMI-compatible component connected to the receiver operates in sync as described below.
! From the menu screen of the Control with HDMI-compatible TV, set audio to be played through this receiver,
and the receiver will switch to the synchronized amp mode.
! When in the synchronized amp mode, you can adjust the receiver’s volume or mute the sound using the TV’s
remote control.
! When in the synchronized amp mode, the synchronized amp mode is canceled when the receiver’s power is
turned off. To turn the synchronized amp mode back on, set audio to be played through the receiver from the
TV’s menu screen, etc. This receiver will power up and switch to the synchronized amp mode.
! When the synchronized amp mode is canceled, the receiver’s power turns off if you were viewing an HDMI
input or a TV program on the TV.
! When in the synchronized amp mode, the synchronized amp mode is canceled if an operation that produces
sound from the TV is performed from the TV’s menu screen, etc.
! When the TV’s power is set to standby, the receiver’s power is also set to standby. (Only when the input for a
component connected to the receiver by HDMI connection is selected or when watching the TV.)
! The receiver’s input switches automatically when the Control with HDMI-compatible component is played.
! The receiver’s input switches automatically when the TV’s input is switched.
! The synchronized amp mode remains in effect even if the receiver’s input is switched to a component other
than one connected by HDMI.
The operations below can also be used on Pioneer Control with HDMI-compatible TVs.
! When the receiver’s volume is adjusted or the sound is muted, the volume status is displayed on the TV’s
screen.
! When the OSD language is switched on the TV, the receiver’s language setting also switches accordingly.

Sound Retriever Link

These are automatic functions allowing you to output optimum audio and video signals from the receiver using
the Control with HDMI function. When a player supporting the respective function is connected to the receiver
by HDMI, the sound/picture is optimized for the compressed audio/video file played on the player.
! Depending on the compressed audio/video file format, it may not be operated automatically.
! Also see the player’s operating instructions.
When playing a compressed audio file on the player, the file’s bitrate information is acquired using the Control
with HDMI function, and the sound is optimized on the receiver based on this information.
To activate the Sound Retriever Link function, make the setting below.
1 Set the HDMI Setup’s Control to ON, and set the Control Mode setting to ON.
See HDMI Setup on page 82 .
2 Set the S.RTRV (Auto Sound Retriever) setting to ON.
See Setting the Audio options on page 85 .

Cautions on the Control with HDMI function

! Connect the TV directly to this receiver. Interrupting a direct connection with other amps or an AV converter
(such as an HDMI switch) can cause operational errors.
! Only connect components (Blu-ray Disc player, etc.) you intend to use as a source to the HDMI input of this
receiver. Interrupting a direct connection with other amps or an AV converter (such as an HDMI switch) can
cause operational errors.
! When the receiver’s Control is turned ON, even if the receiver’s power is in the standby mode, it is possible
to output the audio and video signals from a player via HDMI to the TV without producing sound from the
receiver, but only when a Control with HDMI-compatible component (Blu-ray Disc player, etc.) and compatible
TV are connected. In this case, the receiver’s power turns on and the power and HDMI indicators light.
! If the Control setting is not set to OFF, the power consumption during standby will increase.
