Preparation

Video Connections

If your AV receiver has video output jacks, connect your receiver (and then to your TV) so that you can use one TV for several different video sources (LD, VCR etc.) by simply switching the input source selector of your receiver.

The player has three types of video output jacks. Use one of them in accordance with the input jacks of the equipment to be connected.

S-Video terminal <A>

S (separate) video connection achieves a clearer picture than composite video connection by separating color and luminance when transmitting signals. Use commercially available S-video cable. Receiver (and TV) with S-video input is required.

Composite Video terminal <B>

Use audio/video cable supplied with this unit when connecting the player to a TV.

Component Video terminal <C>

Component video connection achieves high fidelity in reproducing colors (better performance than S-video connection), separating video signal into luminance (Y, terminal color-coded as green), and color difference (Pb, blue/Pr, red). Use commercially available coaxial cables. Receiver (and TV) with component input is required. Observe the color of each jack when connecting. If your receiver does not have component output jacks, connecting the player’s component output directly to your TV’s component input can reproduce better video image.

Note:

–You need to set this unit’s component output to YUV (see page 23 “Switching the YUV/RGB”).

SCART Connection <D>

If your TV has only terminal for video input, and you want to connect it directly to this unit, you can use this unit’s SCART output jack.

Note:

–Ensure that the “TV” indication on SCART cable is connected to the TV set and “DVD” indication on SCART cable is connected to this unit.
