Chapter 1: Connection of Equipment
Connection with a TV or Stereo System
Do not insert the power cord plugs of the player and
the connected components until all of the components
have been connected.
For details on the connection terminals and functions
of the TV, refer to its instruction manual.
The video output from the player should be connected
directly to the TV. If the video output is connected
through a VCR, the picture displayed on the TV may
be disturbed due to the copy protect function.
To Connect a TV
Video connection: Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT jack
of the player to the video input of the TV using the
provided video cable.
S Video connection: If the TV has an S Video input
connector, connect the S VIDEO OUTPUT con-
nector of the player to it using the provided S Video
cable.
¶ As S Video separates video signal into the
luminance signal (Y) and color signal (C), it can
provide sharper pictures than ordinary video
connection.
Component video connection: If the TV has com-
ponent video input jacks, connect the Y, Cb and
Cr COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks of the
player to the corresponding jacks on the TV using
video cables.
¶ As component video separate video signal into
the luminance signal (Y) and color difference
signals (Cb, Cr), it can provide sharper image
than the S Video connection.
¶ Depending on the TV or video monitor in use,
the terminal names may be different from those
used with the player (Y/Pb/Pr or Y/B-Y/R-Y, etc.)
¶ When the TV in use is a HDTV or "Hi-Vision"
TV, connect the component video signals from
the player only to the DVD-compatible input
jacks.
SCART connection (For Europe and U.K.): If the
TV or VCR has SCART connectors, connect the
TV SCART or VCR SCART connector of this unit
to the TV or VCR using SCART cables.
¶ The audio and video signals can be output using
a single cable. The signal output from the TV
SCART connector can be switched between
composite video, S Video and RGB. (The VCR
SCART connector always outputs composite
video signals so its output signals cannot be
selected.)
¶ When the TV is connected through a VCR using
SCART connection, the picture displayed on the
TV may be disturbed due to the copy protect
function.
¶ When using only the TV and VCR which are
both connected with the player using the
SCART connection, the signal from the VCR
cannot be sent to the TV if the player is
switched off. (In this case, set the player to the
power standby mode.)
Audio connection: Connect the MIX LINE OUTPUT
jacks of the player to the audio input jacks of the
TV using the provided audio cables.
To Connect a Stereo System

jack of the player to the audio input jacks of the
