Onkyo Complete Guide to Connecting Your TV with DR-S501 DVD Receiver

Connecting the DVD receiver—Continued

Connecting Your TV (video connection)

•Connect the DVD receiver directly to your TV. If you connect the DVD receiver through a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the picture may be dis- torted because DVD-Video discs are usually copy pro- tected.

Using Component Video

You can use the component video output instead of the standard video out jack to connect this receiver to your TV (or other equipment).

This will provide better quality picture than composite video.

This jack cannot output the signal from composite video input.

•Use a component video cable (not supplied) to con- nect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks to a component video input on your TV (or monitor).

If you connect the component video output to a TV or another component that doesn’t support progressive scanning, be sure to turn off HDMI (see page 30). You can set the component video output to Progressive or Interlaced (see page 30).
