Description of Jacks (from left to right)

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT

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

5.1 CHANNEL AUDIO OUT

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

COMPONENT VIDEO (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.

PROGRESSIVE (Y, PB, PR) VIDEO OUT

Use these jacks to connect to a TV with progressive video input jacks (labeling may vary; for example, progressive scan jacks might be labeled Y, Pb, Pr). Progressive scan is a video scanning system that displays all lines in a frame in one pass, as opposed to the traditional system, interlaced scan. This connection provides optimum quality. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables for connections. Note that it is essential to match the color-coded connectors with a compatible TV.

COMPOSITE 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.
