JVC XV-S403SG To connect to a TV with the component video input jacks, Selecting the Color System

Getting started

Selecting the Color System

The unit is compatible with the PAL and NTSC systems, Set the VIDEO OUT SELECT (NTSC/PAL) switch on the rear panel to match the color system of your TV. Make sure that the color system of a DVD VIDEO/Video CD/SVCD disc labeled on the package matches your TV.

If you use a multi-system TV, you can play discs recorded on both PAL and NTSC systems by setting the VIDEO OUT SELECT (NTSC/PAL) switch appropriately. However, note that you must change the switch position while the unit power is off with the DVD removed (on standby). Otherwise, the changed setting is not effective.

NOTE

•Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the video input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the unit to a TV via a VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing back a copy-protected disc.

•When you use the S-VIDEO or VIDEO signal connection, no picture will appear if setting is made to COMPONENT. In this case, switch the setting to S-VIDEO. However, in XV-S400 series, when you use the video (composite) signal connection, a picture normally appears regardless of the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch setting.
