The following show examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player either TV and other components.

If using this DVD player to playback a DVD in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround or DTS surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks. 5.1 channel Dolby Digital Surround sound and DTS sound can also be output from the 5.1 CH OUTPUT jacks. By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard, which can be heard in movie theaters. Use an audio coaxial or optical digital cable (not included) for the audio connections. Use audio cables (commercially available) for the 5.1 CH audio connection.

Notes

• Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.
  Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to the DVD player.

NOTES

• If output Dolby Digital audio, connect to a Dolby Digital decoder, and set Dolby Digital to on for audio output in the setup mode. (See page 26)
• If output DTS audio, connect to a DTS decoder, and set DTS to ON for audio output in the setup mode. (See page 26)
• Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, or a DTS decoder, set Dolby Digital or DTS to OFF for audio output in the setup mode. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers. (See page 26)
• The audio source on a disc in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD or DAT deck.
• Set Dolby Digital and DTS to OFF for audio output in the setup mode for method 1 only. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers. (Refer to page 26 to set ON for Dolby Digital and DTS)

Connection to 5.1-channel Surround Sound system

Analog 5.1-channel audio signals can be output from the DVD player.

The multichannel audio signals recorded in packed PCM can be played when an AV amplifier equipped with analog 5.1-channel audio inputs is connected.

Optical cable (not supplied)

• Optical cable (not supplied) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diameter of 15 cm or more when storing them.
• Use a cable which is 3m or shorter.
• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.
• If a plug has minor scratches or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.

Connection to a TV (for video)

Method 1 DVD Player + TV with Video Input Jack
Method 2 DVD Player + TV with S-Video Input Jack
Method 3 DVD Player + TV with Component Video Jacks

NOTES

• If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (480p), connect the TV to the Component Video Output jacks of the DVD player. Refer to page 12.
• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the copy protection system.
• S-Video output connector

The video signals are divided into color (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture. If the TV is equipped with a S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to the this product's S-Video output connector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.

HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS

If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV's 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not included. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked "TO TV") to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details. If your TV's 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV's antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked "ANT IN"), then connect the RF modulator to your TV's antenna terminal as described above.

NOTE

• The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV's antenna terminal through an RF Modulator.
