To connect to a TV with the component video input jacks

You can enjoy high picture quality by connecting the unit’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to the COMPONENT VIDEO IN jacks of your TV with the video cables.

Set the SCAN MODE selector correctly according to your TV system.

If your TV or projector provides the “525p” (or “480p”) video inputs, connect the unit's COMPONENT outputs to them and set the SCAN MODE selector to “525p”. Also make sure that the TV/projector is set to the progressive mode when enjoying playback of the unit.

If you have a conventional TV or projector, set the SCAN MODE selector of the unit to “525i”. If the SCAN MODE selector is set to “525p”, no signal will be output from the VIDEO and S-VIDEO jacks.

• Connect “Y” to “Y,” “PB” to ”PB,” “PR” to “PR” correctly.

NOTES

When the component video input jacks of the TV is of the BNC type, use an adapter to convert a pin jack to a BNC jack (optional).

Make the “DOWN MIX” setting in “PREFERENCE 2” to “Lo/Ro” and the Speaker setting in “SPK. SETTING” to “2 CHANNEL” (see pages 42 and 44).

If you do not connect the unit with the S-video cable, some functions of your TV may not work.

About SCAN MODE

To display video on the monitor (television) screen, the conventional scanning method is called “Interlaced scan”. With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture (frame); i.e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing all the even-numbered lines.

On the other hand, the Progressive scan system scans all horizontal lines at a time, so you can double the number of pictures compared with the interlaced scan, resulting flicker-free, high-density picture.

To enjoy the progressive scanned video, a monitor (or TV or projector) to be connected to the unit must have the Progressive inputs.

Depending on the material source format, DVD video discs can be classified into two types; film source and video source (Note that some DVD video discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per- second (60-field-per-second interlaced) information.

When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on each field to create the pseudo uninterlaced picture and outputs as the progressive signal.
