To connect to a TV with DVI input

Use an HDMI-DVI converter cord (not supplied). The DVI jack will not accept any audio signals, so you have to use another audio connection in addition to this connection (page 20). Furthermore, you cannot connect the HDMI OUT jack to DVI jacks that are not HDCP compliant (e.g., DVI jacks on PC displays).

To change the aspect ratio for the connected TV

Depending on the disc and the TV type (standard 4:3 screen TV or wide screen TV), the image may not fit the TV screen. If this happens, change the aspect ratio (page 70).

zHint

If your TV has a CONTROL S jack, you can control the player by operating the remote toward the TV. This feature is convenient when you placed the player and the TV away from each other. After connecting the player with other components according to the above A, B, C, or D, connect the TV via the CONTROL S IN using a Control S cord (not supplied). Refer to the instructions supplied with the TV to be connected.

Hookups

Notes
