4. Connecting COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTPUTs 1, 2

Connect this jack to the (composite)VIDEO input jack of your amplifier/receiver or TV.

The same signal is output from COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTPUT 1 and 2 jacks, enabling connection to two devices(e, g., an A/V amplifier and additional TV) simultaneously.

5. Connecting S-VIDEO OUTPUTs 1, 2

Connect this jack to the S-VIDEO input jack of your amplifier/receiver or TV

The same signal is output from S-VIDEO OUTPUT 1 and 2 jacks, enabling connection to two devices(e, g., an A/V amplifier and additional TV) simultaneously.

6. Connecting COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUTs

The COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUTs of this unit are capable of outputting either conventional interlacing video signal or progressively scanned video signal(that can reproduce high- density pictures with less flicker).

According to VIDEO OUTPUTs, the excellence in picture quality is as follows:

Progressive “COMPONENT” > Interlaced “COMPONENT” > “S-VIDEO” > “COMPOSITE”

When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect “Y” to “Y”, “Pb” to “Pb”(, “Cb”, “B-Y”), “Pr” to “Pr” (, “Cr”, “R-Y”).

Notes:

When the VIDEO OUTPUT is set to PROGRESSIVE, the S-VIDEO and COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTPUTs can not output the video signals, meaning the picture will not be shown.

When the progressive video signals are input into the non- progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INPUTs of your TV, the picture may not be shown normally.

Therefore, when the progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INPUTs of TV are not connected to, you should set the VIDEO OUTPUT to INTERLACED.(For details, refer to “When selecting the VIDEO OUTPUT” on page 34.)

Do not connect the unit to the TV through a VCR. Otherwise the picture may be disturbed due to the copy protection function.

CONSUMERS SHOULD NOTE THAT NOT ALL HIGH DEFINITION TELEVISION SETS ARE FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH THIS PRODUCT AND MAY CAUSE ARTIFACTS TO BE DISPLAYED IN THE PICTURE. IN CASE OF 525 OR 625 PROGRESSIVE SCAN PICTURE PROBLEMS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE USER SWITCH THE CONNECTION TO THE “STANDARD DEFINITION” OUTPUT. IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS REGARDING OUR TV SET COMPATIBILITY WITH THIS MODEL 525p AND 625p DVD PLAYER, PLEASE CONTACT OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER.
