When connecting, make sure you connect Output jacks to Input jacks, Video to Video, Right Audio to Right Audio, etc. A description of each jack
follows.
Description of Jacks
AUDIO OUT – Insert audio cables (left - white, and right - red) to the AUDIO R and L jacks on your DVD Player and to the corresponding Audio
Input jacks (left and right) on your TV or receiver.
VIDEO OUT
– If you are using color-coded red, yellow and white RCA cables, connect the yellow video cable to this jack and to the Video Input jack
on your TV.
DIGIT
AL AUDIO OUT (COAXIAL type connector) – You can connect a compatible audio receiver to this jack. Some receivers have either the COAXIAL or
OPTICAL type of Digital Audio Input jack, and some have both. Under most conditions, optical and coaxial connections work equally well — the only
difference is the type of cable you connect to the jack.
Rarely, but sometimes, coaxial cables — especially long ones, pick up radio frequency (RF) interference from household appliances, nearby power lines,
and/or broadcast towers.If you want to use a less expensive cable, connect a coaxial cable to the COAXIAL jack if your receiver has a COAXIAL input
jack.
S-VIDEO OUT
– If your TV has an S-VIDEO jack, connect an S-Video cable to the DVD Player’s S-VIDEO jack and to the TV’s S-Video jack to achieve
better picture quality than using the VIDEO jack. S-VIdeo only carries the picture, so you must connect the audio cables.
