Notes

After you have completed the connection, make the appropriate settings in Quick Setup (page 17). If your AV amplifier (receiver) has an MPEG audio decoder function, set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in Audio Setup (page 57). Otherwise, no sound or a loud noise will come from your speakers.

The TVS effects of this player cannot be used with this connection.

In order to listen to DTS sound tracks, you must use this connection. DTS sound tracks are not output through the LINE (RGB)-TV (SCART) jack, even if you set “DTS” to “ON” in Quick Setup (page 17).
