Connecting a DVD player and TV

This page shows you how to connect your DVD player and TV to the receiver.

1Connect a coaxial digital audio output on your DVD player to the DIGITAL COAX 1 (DVD/LD) input on this receiver.

Use a coaxial digital audio cable for the connection.1

2Connect the composite video output and

the stereo analog audio outputs2 on your DVD player to the DVD/LD inputs on this receiver.

Use a standard RCA video cable3 and a stereo RCA phono cable for the connection.

If your DVD player has multichannel analog outputs, see Connecting the multichannel analog outputs below for how to connect it.

3Connect the analog audio outputs from your TV to the TV/SAT inputs on this receiver. This will allow you to play the sound from the TV's built-in tuner. Use a stereo RCA phono cable to do this.

If your TV has a built-in digital decoder, you can also connect an optical digital audio output from your TV to the DIGITAL OPT 2 (TV/SAT) input on this receiver. Use an optical cable for the connection.

4Connect the MONITOR OUT video jack on this receiver to a video input on your TV. Use a standard RCA video cable to connect to the composite video jack.4

Note

1If your DVD player only has an optical digital output, you can connect it to the optical input on this receiver using an optical cable. When you set up the receiver you'll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the player to (see The Input Assign menu on page 58).

2This connection will allow you to make analog recordings from your DVD player.

3For better quality, you can also connect with S-video using the S-VIDEO DVD/LD jack. If your player also has a component video output, you can connect this too. See Using the component video jacks on page 17 for more on this.

4For better quality, you can also connect with S-video using the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack. See Using the component video jacks on page 17 if you want to use the component video outputs to connect this receiver to your TV.
