Connecting a TV
Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a Blu-ray
Disc or DVD through the HDMI connection, the
TV (or an AV amplifier) must support the
copyright protection system called
HDCP
(high-bandwidth digital content protection
system). HDCP is copy protection technology
that comprises data encryption and
authentication of the connected AV device. See
the operating instructions for your TV (or AV
amplifier) for more information.
Connecting a TV using HDMI
An HDMI connection provides the best audio
and video.
Your player is compatible with progressive scan.
The feature provides you with higher quality
pictures than a traditional output system. You
may need to adjust the HDMI Video Resolution
setting. For more information, see “Adjusting the
HDMI video resolution” on page 20.
To connect a TV using HDMI:
1 Make sure that your player and the TV are
turned off.
2 Connect one end of an HDMI cable (not
provided) to the HDMI OUT jack on the back
of your player.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the
HDMI IN jack on the TV.
Connecting a TV using DVI
A DVI connection provides better video than
component or standard video.
To connect a TV using DVI:
1 Make sure that your player and the TV are
turned off.
2 Connect an HDMI-DVI cable (not provided) to
the HDMI OUT jack on the back of your
player.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the
DVI IN jack on the TV.
4 Complete the steps in “Connecting standard
audio” on page 9 to connect the standard
audio.
Notes
Connect your player directly to the TV. If you
connect your player to the TV through a VCR, the
video may be distorted because of the
copy-protection system.
If you connect your player to the TV with HDMI or
component video cables and the picture is not
displayed correctly, press and hold PLAY on
the front of your player for more than five seconds.
Your player resets to the default video resolution
automatically.
You cannot change the video resolution during
Blu-ray Disc playback. To change the resolution,
stop playback.
Notes
• We recommend that you use High Speed
HDMI Cable (also known as HDMI category 2
cable) for better compatibility.
• When using HDCP-incompatible TV, the image
will not be displayed correctly.
• Your player cannot be controlled by another
device through the HDMI jack.
• The audio signals from the HDMI OUT jack
(including the sampling frequency, the number
of channels, and bit length) maybe limited by
the device that is connected.
• If the device connected to the HDMI OUT jack
does not support audio output (for example, a
projector), no audio is output from the HDMI
OUT jack.
Note
The HDMI cable carries both audio and video. You
do not need to make additional audio connections.
