Composite Input TV Connection

English

Connect the COMPOSITE VIDEO eoutput to the composite video input of your TV. Connect the ANALOG AUDIO =outputs to the audio inputs of your TV. A cable for these connections is supplied.

If your TV has a single monaural audio input instead of a pair of stereo inputs, you need to use a “Y” cable adapter to connect the two output channels of the RDV-1045 to the single input.

You can improve the sound quality of the system by connecting the audio outputs to a separate hi-ﬁ audio system. (See the following section.)

S-Video Input TV Connection

If your TV has an S-video input, you should connect it to the S-VIDEO e output of RDV-1045 using an S-video cable. This will produce better picture quality.

NOTEs: Do not connect an S-video cord and a component video cord at the same time. The may prevent proper playback Connect the DVD player directly to a TV or a monitor. Do not route through a video cassette recorder (VCR). Otherwise picture distortion may occur during playback. Con- necting the DVD player to a VCR-built-in-TV

may also cause picture distortion.

Component Input TV Connection

If your TV has component video signal input jacks you will get better video performance by using the COMPONENT VIDEO q output jacks of the RDV-1045. The required cable is not provided. Be sure to connect the “Y” output to the “Y” input, “PB” output to the “PB” input, and the “PR” output to the “PR” input.

NOTES: When using the Component Video outputs do not connect an S-Video cable.

The component signal inputs on some TV’s have BNC type connectors. (BNC connectors are coaxial connectors that have keyed lock- ing collars.) In such instances adapters or a special cable may be needed.

When the Component Video outputs are connected to an NTSC/PAL television you may be able to use the Progressive Scan mode of the RDV-1045 which produces a picture with less ﬂicker. See the P.SCAN sec- tion of this manual.
