Note for HDMI connection

A simple 1-cable connection with a device having an HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) connector allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-video and other devices.

When connecting with an HDMI cable, the audio signal will be output as the digital audio signal simultaneously, so you do not need the analog audio connection described above.

Note

Connect this unit directly to the TV. If the RCA audio/video cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the copy protection system.

To set progressive scan mode, refer to page 110

This unit is compatible with the progressive scan system. The feature provides you with the higher quality images than the traditional output system does. To utilize this feature, you must set “Progressive Scan” to “ON”.
