COMPONENT (Y, PB, PR) VIDEO OUT

Use these jacks to connect to a TV with component video input jacks. Unlike a single video input, component video maintains the video signal as three separate signals through these three jacks. This connection provides optimum quality. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables for the Y, PB, and PR connections. Note that it is essential to match the color-coded connectors with a compatible TV.

VIDEO OUT

If you are using color-coded red, yellow and white RCA cables, connect the yellow video cable to this jack and to the Video Input jack on your TV.

S-VIDEO OUT

If your TV has an S-Video jack, you can connect an S-Video cable for increased video quality. The S-Video cable only carries the picture signal; remember to connect the left and right audio cables.

AUDIO OUT

Insert audio cables (left and right) from the FRONT R (right) and L (left) jacks on your DVD player to the corresponding Audio Input jacks (left and right) on your TV or receiver.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT

Use a digital optical or coaxial cable (not provided) to connect your DVD player to a compatible Dolby Digital or DTS receiver or decoder.
