Connecting to an AV receiver

You usually have to connect the same kind of video cable between your DVD player and AV receiver, and between your AV receiver and TV.

This enables you to listen to multichannel surround sound.

For an optical connection, use an optical cable (not supplied) to connect the OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an optical input on your AV receiver.

For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (similar to the supplied video cable) to connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver.

My TV doesn’t have any inputs to connect the DVD player. How can I watch DVDs?

If your TV has no inputs you can’t use this player with it.
