About Setup H: Using component-video cables to connect a DVD player and an HDTV
In this setup, a DVD player is added to Setup G.
• Connect the DVD player directly to the HDTV using any spare composite video or S-video input connectors that the HDTV may have.
• The audio connection from the DVD player could go directly to the HDTV, provided that there are enough appropriate audio input connectors on the
HDTV. If there are not enough audio inputs on the HDTV, or if you wish to enhance the sound, you must connect a home theater receiver or audio
amplifier to the DVD, as shown (cables 10).
• If the DVD player has a digital audio output, this can be used to connect to home theater (e.g. cable 11 in the diagram above), in which case, cables
10 are not needed.
• A home theater receiver will also enhance the sound from the set-top. There is a choice of two S/PDIF outputs on the set-top: (i) electrical (labeled
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT, which is shown connected by cable 8 in the diagram above), and (ii) optical (labeled DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)).
• In the diagram above, cables 3 are not needed if cable 8 is used.
