If your equipment supports it:
•
The optical (
OPTICAL SPDIF
) or coaxial (
SPDIF
) audio outputs may be
used in place of the stereo audio outputs (
AUDIO R
and L). In most
cases these outputs offer a higher level of audio quality, including
support for 5.1 surround sound.
•
S-video connections may be used in place of the standard RCA
video connections. In most cases, S-video offers a higher level of
standard definition video quality than RCA video.
The video connection method does not support HD video. For more
information, see “Connecting your DCT* to an HDTV – Video Only” on
page 18.
