PLAYBACK ➤ Playing back music in multiple rooms (multi-zone) En 82
■ Connecting an HDMI-compatible device to
play back videos/audio
Connect an HDMI-compatible device (such as a TV) to play back
videos/audio at Zone2. If you connect an AV amplifier, you can
enjoy multi-channel playback in another room (Zone2).
• To watch videos played back on a video device at Zone2, you need to connect the
video device to the unit with an HDMI cable (p.31).
• We recommend that you disable HDMI Control on the playback devices connected
to the unit.
• On-screen operations are not available for Zone2.
To assign the HDMI OUT 2 (ZONE OUT) jack to Zone2, set “HDMI
OUT2 Assign” (p.113) in the “Setup” menu to “Zone2”.
