Connecting SCART (for Europe only) and S-Video cables

SCART and S-Video cables will only plug in one way, so make sure the plug is correctly lined up with the jack before inserting. Be sure to fully insert for a good connection.

Note

•The A/V EURO CONNECTOR connector can output composite, S-Video or RGB component video. If you connect just one TV, use the A/V EURO CONNECTOR connector. You can select the type of video output by changing the Video Out setting in the Setup Menu (page 36).

S-Video or composite video?

S-Video should give a better picture, so if you have an S-Video input, use it. S-Video cables are available from any good audio/ visual dealer.

Connecting HDMI cables

With an HDMI cable, both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (e.g., LPCM or bit stream data such as Dolby

Digital, DTS, or MPEG data) can be trans- mitted with just a single connector.

By transmitting DVD image data directly as digital data without it being first converted into analog format, it becomes possible to provide the very finest in image quality (see

pages 30, 37).

Note

•The HDMI output of this unit can be connected to a DVI jack on a TV or other device using a conversion adapter. In this case, it is necessary to use a TV or display with an HDCP-compat- ible DVI input. (see page 37)

•There may be no image output if connected to a TV or display that is not compatible with the above format.

•Refer to the instruction manual of the TV or display to be connected to this unit for detailed information regarding the HDMI terminal.

•When connecting a progressive input TV with the component output of the player, select Progressive in the Components Out setting

(see page 36). 11
