Connecting the DV-CP701—Continued

Connecting Your TV or Projector

This section explains how to connect the DV-CP701 to your TV or projector.

In this hookup example, the TV handles the audio and video. If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, you’ll be able to enjoy DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround logo.

To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround), you’ll need a compatible decoder (see page 18).

The DV-CP701 has three types of video output: component video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to connect the DV-CP701’s COMPONENT video output to the compo- nent video inputs on your TV. If your TV supports progres- sive scanning, you must use component video in order to take advantage of that feature.

S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video, so if your TV supports it, use the supplied S-Video cable to connect the DV-CP701’s S VIDEO output to an S-Video input on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite video cable to connect the DV-CP701’s VIDEO output to a composite video input on your TV.

Notes

Before making any connections, turn off the DV-CP701 and your TV and disconnect their power cords from the wall outlets.

Also refer to the connection information supplied with your TV.

Connect the DV-CP701’s video outputs directly to your TV. Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in between your DV-CP701 and TV. Doing so may result in

picture distortion, because of the copy protection system used on DVD-Video discs.

When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play DTS CDs or don’t select DTS soundtracks on DVD-Video discs. Doing so will produce unpleasant digital noise, which may damage your equipment.
