Connecting the DV-L55
—Continued
• Connect the DVD Player to the TV directly. If you
connect the DVD Player to a VCR, TV/VCR combina-
tion, or video selector, the playback picture may be
distorted as DVD videos are copy protected.

Using S-Video

If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-Video input,
you can use this instead of the standard (composite) out-
put for a better quality picture.
• Use the S-Video cable (not supplied with European
model) to connect the S VIDEO OUTPUT to an S-
Video input on your TV (or monitor or AV receiver).
Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same
mark on the plug before plugging in.

Using Component Video

You can use the component video output instead of the
standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV
(or other equipment).
This should give you the best quality picture from the
three types of video output available.
• Use a component video cable (not supplied) to con-
nect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks to a
component video input on your TV, monitor or AV
receiver.
Note:
•To set up the player for use with a progressive scan TV,
see “Video Output settings – Component Out” on
page 41.

Using SCART (European model only)

If your TV has a SCART-type AV input, you can use a
SCART cable to connect this player to your TV. This
type of connection carries both the sound and the picture,
so there’s no need to connect up the AUDIO OUTPUT
L/R and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
• Use the SCART cable (supplied with European
model) to connect the AV CONNECTOR to an AV
input on your TV.
This connector can output composite video, S-Video, or
RGB video. The default setting is composite, which
should work with all TVs. Consult the manual that came
with your TV to see if you can use one of the higher qual-
ity settings. See page 41 for how to change the video out-
put.
