Additional connections
To enjoy multi-channel surround sound DVD-Video, connect an
amplifier with Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG decoders.
“Digital Audio Output” in the Setup menu (> 59)
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 (> 60).
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.
Connect to terminals of the same colour.
Supplied Audio/Video cable can also be used as an alternative for
Audio cable without connecting the video connector (yellow).
When connected to an HDMI compatible unit, an uncompressed digital audio and video signal is transmitted. You can enjoy high quality, digital
video and audio with just one cord. When connecting to an HDMI-compatible HDTV (High Definition Television), the output can be switched to
1080p, 1080i or 720p HD video.
Video sources converted to 1920k1080 resolution, while of high quality, will exhibit somewhat lower subjective image resolution than true,
native 1080p full-HD sources. See dealer for details.
Please use High Speed HDMI cables that have the HDMI logo (as shown on the cover).
When setting video output to “1080p”, please use the HDMI cables 5.0 meters or less.
If you are connecting to a TV that is only compatible with 2 channel audio output, audio with 3 channels or more will be down mixed (> 78) and
output as 2 channels, even if connecting with an HDMI cable. (Some discs cannot be down mixed.)
You cannot connect this unit to DVI devices that are incompatible with HDCP.
For units compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright protection that are equipped with a digital DVI input
terminal (PC monitors, etc.):
Depending on the unit, images may not be displayed properly or at all when connecting with a DVI/HDMI switching cable. (Audio cannot be
