Note
• Connect this unit directly to the TV. If the RCA audio/video cables are connected to a VCR,

video, connect to the component video input.

resolution. If the connected display device is not compatible for 480p/720p/1080i video
resolution, set “Component Output” to “480i”. (For playing back BD, 480i video resolution is not
available.)

Resolution” or “Component Output” setting, press and hold B on the front panel for more than
