Connecting to a TV
Before connecting
• Refer also to the instruction manual of the TV.
• When you connect the DVD Player to the TV, be sure to turn off the
power and unplug both units from the mains before making any
connections.
• Connect the DVD Player to the TV directly. If you connect the DVD
Player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the playback
picture may be distorted as DVD videos are copy protected.
• When this DVD player is connected to a TV compatible with
progressive signal using the VIDEO OUTPUT COMPONENT jacks,
setting the video output to “Progressive” (see page 43) will produce a
higher quality picture.

Making component video connections
If the TV or monitor has component video inputs, making
this type of video connection will produce the ideal picture
quality for the presentation of DVD-Video. Using a
componect video cable (sold separately), connect the
VIDEO OUTPUT COMPONENT jacks to the corresponding
component video input jacks on the TV.
Actual labels for component video inputs may vary
depending on the TV manufacturer. (e.g. Y, R-Y, B-Y or Y,
C
B, CR)
In some TVs or monitors, the color levels of the playback
picture may be reduced slightly or the tint may change. In
such a case, adjust the TV or monitor for optimum
performance.
Be sure to set the TV Aspect after connection using
the Setup Navigator explained in “Setting Up the
Player” starting on page 16 or the function setting
menu explained in “Adjusting Audio and Video
Settings” starting on page 38.

Connecting to a TV Using the Audio/Video
Connection Cable
If the TV or monitor has an S video input, make the S video
connection. The S video connection will provide higher
quality picture playback.
Notes
• If the TV audio is monaural, leave the red plug disconnected.
• If you make both the S video and the yellow plug connections,
S video has priority.
