Video connection to a TV / Beamer with Component
Video inputs (YCbCr / YPbPr)
Component video separates the video signal into three separate “components”,
resulting in a higher picture quality than S-Video or standard composite video.
In order to use component video, you have to use a TV/Beamer equipped with
component video inputs.
You will also need a component/P-Scan video cable (not included) with sepa-
rate connectors for Y, Cb/Pb and Cr/Pr signals. This type of cable also supports
the Progressive Scan mode when used with high-end P-Scan TVs. Using the
component video output or P-Scan mode requires the following steps:
1. Preparation:
- First, use an audio/video cable or S-Video cable to connect the DVD play-
er to the composite video or S-Video input on your TV/beamer.
- As this device has a fixed power cord, only plug the other end of the fixed
power cord into the wall socket.
- Turn on the TV/beamer and the DVD player and select the corresponding
video input on your TV/beamer.
2. Entering the setup menu to change the Video setting:
Enter the player’s setup menu by pressing the
“SETUP”
button on the
remote control. Use the direction button
“
A
”
to navigate to the “Video” setup
page, then press
“ENTER”
navigate down to the “Video output” menu and
press
“ENTER”
to enter the menu. Use the direction button
“
D
”
to proceed down to the
“YUV”
setting and press
“ENTER”
to confirm
your selection. On the screen will now be displayed a warning hint. Follow
the instructions on the screen.
3. Connecting the player using the Component Video cable:
Unplug the Composite Video or S-Video cable and connect the Component
Video cable to the appropriate jacks on your TV/Beamer. Normally, cables
and jacks are color-coded to make the connection easier. Then adjust the
TV’s/Beamer’s video input setting to correspond to the component video
input.
