General Precautions
We know you are anxious to get your new toy all hooked up and working,
but really, it’s good to read these instructions, take your time and do things
right the first time.
• Before you connect the DVD player to other equipment, be sure
to unplug all of the equipment in the system from the wall outlet.
• If you are using the DP-1 as both a DVD player and a CD player,
connect both the digital and analog outputs of the DP-1 as shown
in the illustration below.
Component Video Output Connections
If your TV has component video inputs you may want to connect the DP-1
CD/DVD player to those inputs. On the plus side, component video connec-
tions yield superior picture quality. On the downside, in order to watch a
DVD, you will have to select the DVD input on the Digital Solution
preamp/processor and select the component video input on your TV, rather
than have the simplicity of one-button audio/video switching.
S-Video Connection Precaution
If you use an S-Video cable to connect the video output of the DP-1 player
to the Digital Solution preamp/processor, you MUST use an S-Video cable
to connect the DS preamp/processor to the TV. You cannot mix S-Video and
standard coaxial (composite) video connections throughout the system and
expect to get a picture.
If you use the S-Video output to connect the DS Preamp/Processor to your
TV, switch the DP-1’s video output switch the to “S-Video” as shown in the
illustration. For all other types of video connections use the “Component
and Video Out” switch position.
Remote Control In/Out Connection
This feature is useful when either the DP-1 CD/DVD player or the
Digital Solution preamp/processor will be out of remote control range,
such as in cases where one of the two is hidden behind a cabinet door.
The Remote In/Out feature allows one component to “feed” the other the
remote control signals. If you have such a need, use the extra conductor
signal cable of the supplied two-conductor cable to connect the Remote
Control Extension Out jack of the Digital Solution preamp/processor to
the Remote Control In jack of the DP-1 CD/DVD player as shown in the
illustration below.
