Component output (Y, Pr, Pb / Y, Cr, Cb)
YPrPb sockets deliver an optimum image quality due to the separation of the video signal into three separate components (comparable with RGB separation in a
Note: the video signal available from these 3 sockets depends on the choice made in the Video Out menu.
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 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.
Optical and coaxial Out sockets
The digital sound from a Video DVD in playback is permanently available at the optical and coaxial sockets on your player. Use one of these sockets by connecting it to a decoder or a
DTS or Dolby Digital amplifier. Some of these appliances are equipped with a coaxial In socket (COAXIAL) or an optical In socket (OPTICAL), while others are equipped with both sockets. Choose one of the two connections.
Note: In most cases these two types of connection give similar results; the only difference lies in the type of
cable used and the cost of these cables, the coaxial cable being the least expensive one to buy. However it sometimes happens that some coaxial cables are parasitised by high frequency interference caused by
household electrical appliances, high voltage electric cables or radio transmitters. Note : when connecting the optical audio digital cable:
1.Remove the protection cap from the connector and connect it firmly as shown on the drawing.
2.Keep the protection cap and always reattach the cap when the connector is not in use, to keep it dustfree.
