The secondary HDMI output of the 651/751BD can be used either to
allow connection of two display devices or to allow separate HDMI audio
and video outputs as shown in the two examples below.
Connecting to two displays using dual HDMI
The 651/751BD features two HDMI outputs.
If is therefore possible to connect two TVs or a TV and Projector etc. you
should treat output 1 as the Primary highest quality output as it benefits
from the in-built Marvell QDeo scaler.

Both outputs can pass 3D TV signals.
Set the Primary Output option in the setup menu to ‘HDMI 2’,
see later section.
This is necessary to allow HDMI 2 to output high resolution audio.
Connecting to a display and audio system using dual
HDMI
If your AV Receiver cannot pass 3D TV HDMI signals it is possible to
configure the 651/751BD to output Video (inc 3D TV) via HDMI 1 directly
to a 3D compatible display and Audio via HDMI 2 directly to the AV
Receiver.
Set the Primary Output option in the setup menu to ‘HDMI 1’,
see later section.
