Optional Video Connections

Visible improvements in DVD-Video quality can be achieved by making either S-video or component video connections to a TV or monitor compatible with these types of connections.

Note

When either S-video or component video connection is made, it is not necessary to make composite video connections using the yellow cord of the audio-video cable.

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 CH1 or CH2 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, CB, 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 Audio Out Select to “Analog 2Ch” using the on-screen menu explained in “Customizing the Function Settings” starting on page 44. See page 48 for direct information.

PROGRESSIVE outputs/inputs

Some TVs or monitors are equipped with component video inputs that are capable of reproducing a progressively scanned video signal. Connecting to these inputs allows you to view the highest quality pictures with less flicker.

Interlaced outputs/inputs

Some TVs or monitors are equipped with component video inputs. Connecting to these inputs allows you to enjoy higher quality picture playback.

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.

To switch the output signal (Progressive/Interlaced)

Press PROGRESSIVE on the remote control.

The output signal alternates between component progressive and component interlaced. For details, refer to “Selecting Progressive Scan Video Output” on page 42.

Making S-video connections

If the TV or monitor has an S-video input, making this type of video connection will produce improved picture quality. Using an S-video cable, connect the VIDEO OUTPUT S VIDEO CH1 or CH2 jack to the corresponding S-video input jack on the TV.

Be sure to set Audio Out Select to “Analog 2Ch” using the on- screen menu explained in “Customizing the Function Settings” starting on page 44. See page 48 for direct information.
