Connecting equipment with HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) terminals
•A simple 1-cable connection (using a commercially available cable) with a device having an HDMI
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connector allows digital transfer of the digital images of
DVD video and other sources, and the multi-channel sound of DVD Audio and DVD Video.
•To provide audio output from AVR-4306’s audio output connector, select “Amp” at the System
Setup.
To provide audio output from the TV, select “TV” at the System Setup. For details, see “Setting
the HDMI In Assign” ( page 71).

2 Copyright Protection System
To play back the digital video and audio of DVD
video and DVD audio through an HDMI/DVI-D
connection, both the connected player and
monitor are required to support a copyright
protection system called HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection System).
HDCP is copy protection technology that
comprises data encryption and authentication
of the partner equipment.
The AVR-4306 supports HDCP. Please see the
user’s manual of your video display for more
information about this.
The AVR-4306 is HDMI Ver. 1.1 compatible.
• If your digital TV monitor or DVD player only supports DVI-D, please obtain and use an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable or adaptor, available from your dealer.
2 Connections with an HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable (adapter)
• The HDMI video stream signals (video signals) are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When
connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with DVI-D terminals, it is possible to connect using an
HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable, but depending on the combination of devices used the image
might not be output.
• When using an HDMI/DVI-D conversion adapter, the image may not be output properly due to
poor contact with the connected cable, etc..
NOTE:
• The audio signals on the multi/stereo area of Super Audio CDs are not output. If the Super
Audio CD is a hybrid CD, only the audio signals in the CD area are output.
• Use a compatible player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright protected by CPPM.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI
connector; however, the AVR-4306 cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI
connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length)
may be limited by the equipment that is connected.
• The video signals are not output properly if a device not compatible with HDCP is used.
• When “Through” is set at “Resolution” under “Setting the HDMI Out Setup”, use a monitor
compatible with input resolutions of 480i/576i.
• The video signals input from the HDMI input terminals are output to the HDMI monitor with
their original resolution, so the image will not be displayed if the resolutions of the input signal
and the monitor being used are not matched. In this case, change the setting of the resolution
on the source device (player) to one which the monitor can handle.
• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using cables that are a maximum of 5 meters in
length.
