Making component video connections

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 component video cable (sold separately), connect the VIDEO OUTPUT COMPONENT jacks to the corresponding component video input jacks on the TV.

BE sure to set the TV Aspect after connection using the Setup Navigator explained in “Setting Up the Player” starting on page 16 or the function setting menu explained in “Adjusting Audio and Video Settings” starting on page 38.

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.
