When you’ve completed all connections,

 

see “Turning On the DPS-10.5” on

page 38.

Notes:

Before making any connections, turn off the DPS-10.5 and your TV and disconnect their power cords from the wall outlets.

Also refer to the hookup pages in your TV’s manual.

Connect the DPS-10.5’s video outputs directly to your TV. Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in between. Doing so may result in picture distortion, because of the copy protection system used on DVD-Video discs.

See the tables on page 24 for details on how the DPS-10.5 outputs video and audio from each output.

D. Connecting an HDTV or Projector

This section shows how to connect the DPS-10.5 to an HDTV (plasma, LCD) or projector.

Use a commercially available component video cable (BNC) to connect the DPS-10.5’s HD VIDEO OUT COMPONENT socket to a component video input on your HDTV. Use the supplied AV cable (RCA) to con- nect the DPS-10.5’s D.MIX AUDIO OUT to an analog audio input on your HDTV.

Notes:

The yellow plugs on the supplied AV RCA cable are not used in this example.

Don’t connect a standard TV to the HD VIDEO OUT COMPONENT socket, because you’ll get no picture.

See the tables on page 24 for details on how the DPS-10.5 outputs video and audio from each output.

E. Connecting a Component with an HDMI Input

This section shows how to connect the DPS-10.5 to a AV receiver, HDTV, or projector that has an HDMI input socket.

What is HDMI?

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new connection format that can carry uncompressed, stan- dard or high definition digital video and up to eight chan- nels of digital audio. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV com- ponents together. With HDMI, a single cable is all that’s necessary to achieve the best picture and audio quality. HDMI video is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface). To send HDMI video to a DVI input requires an HDMI-to-DVI cable. The DPS-10.5 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and for an HDMI-to-DVI connection to work, the other component must also support it. Note that this may not work with some DVI components.
