Connecting the DPC-7.7—Continued

Connecting Your TV or Projector

This section explains how to connect the DPC-7.7 to your TV or projector.

In this hookup example, the TV handles the audio and video. To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround), you’ll need a compatible decoder (see page 19).

The DPC-7.7 has three types of video output: component video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to con- nect the DPC-7.7’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT to the component video inputs on your TV. If your TV sup- ports progressive scanning, you must use component video in order to take advantage of that feature.

S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video, so if your TV supports it, use the S-Video cable to connect the DPC-7.7’s S VIDEO OUTPUT to an S-Video input on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite

video cable to connect the DPC-7.7’s VIDEO OUTPUT to a composite video input on your TV.

Notes:

•Before making any connections, turn off the DPC-7.7 and your TV and disconnect their power cords from the wall outlets.

•Also refer to the connection information supplied with your TV.

•If you connect a TV that does not support progressive scanning to the component video output, change the HDMI Output Setting to Off (see page 46).

•Connect the DPC-7.7’s video outputs directly to your

18 TV. Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in

between your DPC-7.7 and TV. Doing so may result in picture distortion, because of the copy protection sys- tem used on DVD-Video discs.

•When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play DTS CDs or don’t select DTS soundtracks on DVD-Video discs. Doing so will produce unpleasant digital noise, which may damage your equipment.

•If your TV or projector has BNC component video inputs, use a BNC component video cable to connect them to the DPC-7.7’s BNC component video outputs.
