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, MPEG data or DVD Audio Multi channel) can be transmitted 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 6, 40, 41, 46).

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-compatible DVI input.

•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 ON in the Progressive setting (see page 44).
