CONNECTIONS

Description - Rear Panel

1. DIGITAL OUT Jacks (OPTICAL, COAXIAL)

Use either an optical or coaxial digital cable (commercially available) to connect to an AV amplifier with a built-in decoder (AV control centre).

2. AUDIO OUT Jacks

Use an Audio cable to connect to the Audio input jacks of A/V-compatible TV, wide screen TV or Stereo system.

3. HDMI OUT Jack

Use an HDMI connection cable (commercially available) to connect to a display with an HDMI compatible port.

4. VIDEO OUT Jack

Use a video cable to connect one of the jacks to Video input on your A/V-compatible TV, wide screen TV or Stereo system.

5. COMPONENT VIDEO OUT Jacks

Use a Component Video cable (commercially available) to connect these jacks if you have a TV with Component Video in jacks. These jacks provide C

R and Y video. Along with S-Video, Component Video provides the best quality picture.

6. S-VIDEO OUT Jack

Use an S-Video cable (commercially available) to connect this jack to the S-Video jack on your A/V-compatible TV or wide screen TV for a higher quality picture.

7. AV1 Jack

Use a Scart cable (commercially available) to connect to the 21-pin scart jack of a TV.

NOTE:

• When changing the VIDEO OUT setting (SCART, COMPONENT INTERLACE or COMPONENT PROGRESSIVE), connect to a Video jack or an S-Video jack on the TV. If the setting is changed, for example, to SCART while Component Video jacks are connected to the TV, a distorted video signal may be output (refer to page 26).

CAUTION:

• Do not touch the inner pins of the jacks on the rear panel. Electrostatic discharge may cause permanent damage to the player.

Selecting Progressive Scan (480p/576p or Interlaced 480i/576i) Playback

• If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (480p/576p), connect the TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks of the DVD player and set VIDEO OUT to COMPONENT PROGRESSIVE in the display setting. Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode. Refer to page 26 for instructions on changing the display setting. P.SCAN will appear on the display of the unit.

• If your TV is not compatible with progressive scan, set VIDEO OUT to COMPONENT INTERLACE by changing the display setting (refer to page 26). Make sure that P.SCAN on the display of the unit lights off.

• Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TV or monitor is the BNC type.

• The unit is sending Progressive video signal and HDMI signal simultaneously when HDMI mode is set to ON. If you connected component video cable to your TV, which is not compatible with progressive scan, the distorted picture will be output.

• If you playback discs recorded with the NTSC system, this unit sends out NTSC signal from HDMI OUT, COMPONENT VIDEO

OUT, and AV1 Jacks.

What is Progressive Scanning?

• Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan system provides less flickering and images in higher resolution than that of traditional (480i/576i) television signals.

CONNECTIONS

The following shows examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to TV and other components. If using this DVD player to play back a DVD in a Dolby Digital Multi-channel surround or DTS surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL

OUT jacks. By connecting the player to a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder, you can enjoy more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surrounding sound of a professional standard which can be heard in movie theatres. Use an audio optical (Commercially available) or coaxial digital cable

(Commercially available) for the audio connections.

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.

• Method 1 DVD Player + Stereo system

• Method 2 DVD Player + AV amplifier with a built in decoder (AV control centre), Dolby Digital decoder, DTS decoder,

MPEG decoder, MD deck or DAT deck

NOTES (for Method 2 only):

• When using an AV amplifier with a built-in decoder (AV control centre), Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG decoder as shown in the Method 2, set DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS or MPEG to BITSTREAM accordingly for audio output in the setup menu (refer to page 27). Set it to PCM or OFF for the decoder that is not used currently. Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion and may also damage the speakers.

• The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital Multi-channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD deck or DAT deck.

• Set DOLBY DIGITAL and MPEG to PCM, and DTS to OFF for audio output in the setup menu for connecting to an MD deck or DAT deck (refer to page 27).

• Harsh noise that could harm your ears or the speakers is generated when a DVD recorded in DTS is played back while using a decoder, etc., that is not DTS-compatible.

• When playing back a copyright-protected 96kHz (88.2kHz) linear PCM DVD, the digital sound will be down sampled at

48kHz (44.1kHz), even if you set LPCM SELECT to OFF (refer to page 27).

Optical cable (commercially available)

• Optical cable (commercially available) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diameter of 15cm 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 dust or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.

NOTES:

• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the Audio/Video 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 colour (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture.

If the TV is equipped with an S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to this unit S-Video output connector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.

• Component output connector

Picture could be distorted if you connect DVD player with both component output connector and HDMI output connector at the same time.

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

Even 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 (commercially available). 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.

Copyright protection system

To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display equipment (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection System). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV equipment.

This player supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display equipment (or AV amplifier) for more information.

* HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface

NOTES:

• When using an HDMI-incompatible or HDCP-incompatible display equipment, the image will not be viewed properly.

• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this player cannot be controlled by another device vice the HDMI connector.

• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) may be limited by the equipment that is connected.

• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with equipment such as this, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

• When the set’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable (commercially available), the signals are output in digital RGB.
