Recording from a camcorder or other
Audio-Video equipment with no Scart output
jack (AV3)
If no S-Video input jack is available, connect to
VIDEO input jack on the front panel using an RCA
Video cable.
Change the setup when using S-VIDEO IN jack. (See
page 32.)
Digital audio for better sound quality
(only for DVD)
The connections illustrated above are
optional for better sound.
1 For clear digital sound quality, use
the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL
(DRV-B2737 only) or COAXIAL) jack
to connect your digital audio
equipment.
If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the
receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or
no sound at all.
Connecting a Dolby Digital™ decoder, DTS
decoder or MPEG decoder
• Connecting multi-channel Dolby Digital decoder
allows you to enjoy the 5.1ch Dolby Digital surround
system as well as DTS decoder, 5.1 channel
surround system.
• After connecting to a Dolby Digital decoder, set
“DOLBY DIGITAL” to “Stream” in the AUDIO menu.
(See page 60.)
• After connecting to a DTS decoder, set “DTS” to
“ON” in the AUDIO menu. (See page 60.)
• After connecting to a MPEG decoder, set “MPEG” to
“Stream” in the AUDIO menu. (See page 60.)
Connecting to an MD deck or DAT deck
• The audio source recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1
channel surround format cannot be recorded using
an MD or DAT deck as a digital sound.
