Caution

Video signals are only output with a resolution of 480/60i when connected using a video cable (included) or an S-Video cable (commercially available).

When connected to a TV using a video cable or an S-Video cable, also connect using either audio cables (use the included cable for 2-channel connections, a combination of the included cable and commercially available cables for 7.1-channel connections), an optical digital audio cable (commercially available), or a coaxial digital audio cable (commercially available). It is not possible to listen to the sound from devices connected with HDMI cables (commercially available).

Connect the player’s video output directly to your TV. This player supports analog copy protection technology. Therefore the picture may not be displayed properly if connected to a TV via a DVD recorder/video deck or when playing the player’s output material that is recorded by a DVD recorder/ video deck. Furthermore, the picture may not be displayed properly due to the copy protection when the player is connected to a TV with a built-in video deck. For details, contact the manufacturer of your TV.

If a component video cable (commercially available), an S-Video cable (commercially available) or a video cable (included) is connected to watch the picture, it is not possible to listen to the sound of devices connected with HDMI cables.

When DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio signals are output as linear PCM signals, the DTS Digital Surround signals are converted to linear PCM for output (page 50).
