VIDEO sockets and cables (for image)

3- Component output (Y, PR, PB)

YPBPR sockets deliver an optimum image quality due to the separation of the video signal into three separate components (comparable with RGB separation in a Scart-Peritel cable).

In order to obtain the best possible image quality, always use very high quality

 

cables for the connections.Your dealer can provide Y, Pr, Pb cables that are

EN

sold together and come in the standard colour codes (red, green and blue)

used for these types of sockets and cables.

 

Note: Do not forget to also connect the audio cables, because Component cables only transmit images, and not sound.

4- Video out selector (RGB/YPRPB) RGB for Scart Peritel our socket YPrPb for Progressive Scan out socket

If you connect your player to a monitor (or other equipments) set equipped with a Progressive Scan function (using out sockets Y, Pr, Pb) you must set the VIDEO SELECTION selector on these sockets (slide it to the right) and validate the function in the Display menu (see page 23). If the TV set is connected to you player using the TV AUDIO VIDEO OUT socket leave the selector on the corresponding position (slide it to the left), and check that the Progressive Scan function is turned off in the Display menu.

Note: Setting the selector on SCART (RGB) enables a Composite (CVBS) and RGB signal to be delivered to the corresponding Scart-Peritel socket. If you set the selector on Y.Pb.Pr COMPONENT only the Composite (CVBS) signal will be available on the TV AUDIO VIDEO OUT socket; if, moreover, the Progressive Scan function is activated in the Display menu, no video signal will come through the TV AUDIO VIDEO OUT socket. In that case only the Y, Pb, Pr socket swill deliver video signals. To return the video signal to the TV AUDIO VIDEO OUT socket you must slide the selector to the SCART (RGB) position.

5 - S-Video out socket (Y/C)

The S-Video socket delivers a lower quality video signal than component sockets. An S-Video signal however provides a better quality image than a composite video socket, because colour (C) is separate from black and white

(Y) in the video signal.

Note: Do not forget to also connect the audio cables, because the S-Video cable transmits images and not sound.

6- Composite Video Out socket (CVBS)

The yellow video socket is also called composite video, or CVBS.The image quality delivered by the video socket is the least good of all video connections. Only use this socket if all other sockets are already in use.
