NOTE
• DD-8 and DD-3 support up to HDMI version 1.0.
The HDMI video signal type can be checked with
the “HDMI” indicator in the display window.
(Refer to “Selecting the video signal type” shown
on the right.)
• If the picture is distorted while an HDMI TV is
connected, turn off the main unit and turn it on
again.
• A TV compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital Content Protection) can also be con-
nected to the [HDMI] terminal, so that the
uncompressed HD video signal type can be out-
put as well.
■
CAUTION
• Do not connect an S-video cable and a compo-
nent video cable at the same time. Otherwise
the picture may not be played back properly.
• Connect the main unit directly to a TV (or a mon-
itor) without routing through a video cassette
recorder (VCR). Otherwise picture distortion
may occur during playback. (Routing the con-
nection through a VCR, however, does not affect
the audio quality.)
• Connecting the main unit to a VCR-built-in-TV
may also cause picture distortion during play-
back.
To view an image on the TV screen, select the
video signal type correctly according to the TV
after connecting the main unit to the TV.

“Connecting the power cable” on
page 16 and “Turning on the main

Hold down [SCAN MODE] for 2 or
more seconds.
