I have a source connected to my AVR via component video inputs, and my TV connected to the receiver’s component video output. Both are set for 1080i resolution. When I play a Blu-ray Disc or DVD, why is the video blocked and my TV displays the message "Copy protected analog input, use HDMI out"?

DVD and Blu-ray Disc copy protection only allows analog video output up to 576p resolution when playing DVDs and Blu-ray Discs. To view video at higher resolutions use the AVR’s HDMI inputs and HDMI output instead of its component video inputs and output.
