E. Connecting a SCART-compatible TV (European model only)

This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to a TV fitted with a SCART socket. SCART is a convenient con- nection format because it carries video (RGB, S-Video, composite) and stereo analog audio all in a single cable. If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, with a SCART connection you’ll be able to enjoy DVDs that bear the Dolby Surround logo.

Use the supplied SCART cable to connect the RDV-1.1’s AV CONNECTOR to a SCART socket on your TV.

Notes:

•The RDV-1.1’s SCART socket can output RGB, S-Video, or composite video. The default setting is composite video. If your TV’s SCART socket sup- ports RGB or S-Video (check your TV’s manual), you can change this setting and enjoy better picture quality (see page 75).

•See the tables on page 27 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs video and audio from its SCART socket.

F.Connecting a Component with an HDMI Input

This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to an 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 RDV-1.1 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.

Using HDMI

Use the supplied HDMI cable to connect the RDV-1.1’s HDMI OUT to an HDMI input on your TV or projector.

Notes:

•Use the Digital Out/Digital 2 settings to match the HDMI output format with your HDTV (see page 76).

•The RDV-1.1 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digi- tal Content Protection), a protection system for digital video. HDMI components that you connect to the RDV-1.1 must also support HDCP.

•The RDV-1.1 supports High-Definition Multimedia Interface Specification Information Version 1.0.

•See the tables on page 27 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs video and audio from its HDMI OUT socket.
