Connect VIDEO OUT (S VIDEO) jack of this unit to S-video input jack of your AV receiver, and then to that of your TV using a commercially available S-video cable.

■Component video jacks <D>

Connect VIDEO OUT (COMPONENT) jacks of this unit to the component input jacks of your AV receiver, and then to those of your TV using a commercially available component cable. Observe the color of each jack when you make connections.
