STEP 1 Connection
§
Leave “Yellow” unconnected.
The S VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the
VIDEO OUT terminal. (Actual results depend on the television.)
COMPONENT VIDEO terminals can be used for either interlace or
progressive output (85) and provide a purer picture than the
S VIDEO OUT terminal.
Connect to terminals of the same colour.
If you have a regular television (CRT: cathode ray tube)
Use component output with progressive “Off” (The default setting
67), even if it is progressive compatible, because progressive
output can cause some flickering. This is the same for multi system
televisions using PAL mode.
For progressive output (21)
Connecting an amplifier with a digital input
terminal
To enjoy multi-channel surround sound DVD-Video, connect an
amplifier with Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG decoders.
[Required]setting]
“Digital Audio Output” in the Setup menu (66)
When this unit is connected to an amplifier with an Optical digital
audio cable and connected to a television with an HDMI cable, you
can enjoy the highest quality of audio from the disc by setting
“Digital Audio Output” to “Optical Only” in the Setup menu (67).
In this case audio is only output from the amplifier not the
television.
Before purchasing an optical digital audio cable (not included),
check the terminal shape of the connected equipment.
You cannot use DTS Digital Surround decoders not suited to DVD.
