S-Video

If an HDMI or DVI connection is present on your television or display, use it. The OPPO DVD player has an HDMI (digital) video output which presents the highest possible resolutions and video quality. If the television you are using has only component video inputs, then select a component video cable (it has three RCA-style connections on each end typically colored red, green, and blue). If your television is older and has neither of these inputs you may use s-video (a special 4-pin cable) or composite (typically a single yellow RCA-style cable).

Determine Your Display Type

Widescreen, or 16:9 TV

Standard Definition, or 4:3 TV

For best performance, your Oppo DVD player must be correctly configured for playback even before the first disc is inserted. This is done under General Setup Page > TV Display in the Setup Menu.
