Helpful Hints

On the TV, the component video in jacks may be labeled YUV or Pr/Cr Pb/Cb Y and may be green, blue, and red.

If your TV has a single Audio In jack instead of separate left/right Audio In jacks, you will need a different audio cable. You need a “splitter” audio cable to go from the left/right AUDIO OUT jacks of the DVD Player to the single Audio In jack on your TV. See your electronics retailer for details.

You can deactivate Progressive Scan so you can use a different connection. For example you may want to change TVs later. To cancel Progressive Scan at the DVD Player, open the disc tray. Press 1 on the remote, then press MUTE.
