CONNECTING THE VIDEO OUT TO YOUR TY
Choose one of the three methods for connecting to a TV.
, METHOD1
20
METHOD 1 : HDMI
Connect the HDMI cable (not supplied) from the HDMI OUT jack on the back of the Blu-ray Home Theater to the HDMI IN jack on your TV.
_ Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work.
_ If an HDMI cable is connected from the player to a TV, the Blu-ray Home Theater's output is set to
HDMI automaticallywithin 10 seconds.
_ Ifyou are using the Anynet + feature (seepage 37) and Component and HDMI are both connected, HDMImode is automatically selected.
_ When you connect the player to the TV using the HDMI cable for the first time or to a new TV, the
HDMI output resolutionwill be automatically set to the highest provided by the TV.
_ Ifyou connect a Samsung TV to the Blu-ray Home Theater using an HDMI cable, the player can be easilyoperated using the TV remote control. (Thisis only availablewith Samsung TVs that support the Anynet+ feature.) (See page 37)
_ Ifthe HDMI cable is connected or removed during playback of a CDDA, MP3 or JPEG file, the player will stop playing.
_ After making the video connection, set the Video input source on your TV to match the corresponding Video output (HDMI,Component or Composite) on your Home theater.
See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source.
HDMJ Auto Detection Function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable while power is on. For possible HDMI resolutions, see page 36.
• HDMI (High Definition MuWmedia Interface)
HDMI is an interfacethat enabbs the digital transmissionof video and audio data with just a single connector
Using HDMI, the Blu-ray Home Theater transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a
TV having an HDMI input jack.
HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data.
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If your W does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth DigitalContent Protection),random noise appears on the screen.
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a BD/DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the Blu-ray Home Theater) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting BD/DVD content outputted via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector, etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.
What is Anynet+?
Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through SamsungTVs with the Anynet+ feature.
- If your Samsung TV has an _/_y,,et÷ logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.
- If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on automatically and switch to HDMI mode.
- If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.
METHOD 2 • Component Video
If your television is equipped with Component Video inputs, connect a Component video cable(not supplied) from the Component Video Output (Pr, Pb and Y) Jacks on the back of the Blu-ray Home
Theater to the Component Video Input Jacks on your TV.
@
_ You can selectfrom a variety of resolutionsettings such as 1080i,720p, 480p and 480i,depending on the disc type. (See page 36)
_ The actual resolutionmay differ from the setting in the SETUPmenu if both Component and HDMI cables areconnected. The resolutionmay also be differentdepending on the disc. (Seepage 36)
_ After makingthe video connection, set the Video inputsource on your TV to match the correspondingVideo output (HDMI,Component or Composite) on your Hometheater.
See your TV owner's manual for more informationon how to selectthe TV's Video Input source.
METHOD 3 • Composite Video
Connect the supplied Video cable from the VIDEO OUT jack on the back of the Blu-ray Home Theater to the VIDEO IN jack on your TV.
_ The VIDEOsource is alwaysoutput in 480i resolutionregardlessof the resolutionset in the SETUP menu. (Seepage 36)
_ After makingthe video connection, set the Video inputsource on your TV to match the correspondingVideo output (HDMI,Component or Composite) on your Hometheater.

COPY PROTECTION
Because AACS (Advanced Access Content
System) is approved as content protection system for BD format, similar to use of CSS
(Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analog signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents. The operation of this product and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of purchase as those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production of this product. Furthermore, BD-
ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as content protection system for BD format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents. To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-ROM Mark, BD+, or this product, please contact SAMSUNG customer care center.
Many BD/DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your Blu-ray Home Theater directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected
BD/DVD discs.
