Making Connections

Optional Video Connections

Visible improvements in DVD-Video quality can be achieved by making either S-video or component video connections to a TV or monitor compatible with these types of connections.

Note

When either S-video or component video connection is made, it is not necessary to make composite video connections using the yellow cord of the audio-video cable.

Be sure to set TV Aspect after connection using the setup menu explained in “Customizing the Settings” starting on page 28.

Making S-video connections

If the TV or monitor has an S-video input, making this type of video connection will produce improved picture quality. Using an S-video cable, connect the VIDEO OUTPUT S VIDEO jack to the corresponding S-video input jack on the TV.

If the TV or monitor has component video inputs, making this type of video connection will produce the ideal picture quality for the presentation of DVD-Video. Using a componect video cable (sold separately), connect the VIDEO OUTPUT COMPONENT jacks to the corresponding component video input jacks on the TV.

Actual labels for component video inputs may vary depending on the TV manufacturer. (e.g., Y, R-Y, B-Y or Y, CB, CR)

In some TVs or monitors, the color levels of the playback picture may be reduced slightly or the tint may change. In such a case, adjust the TV or monitor for optimum performance.
