Frequently asked questions
What equipment is necessary to
play multi channel surround
sound?
≥
DVD-Video:
You can play DVD-Video multi channel surround by digitally connecting an amplifier
equipped with a Dolby Digital and a DTS decoder.
Can the headphones and speakers
be directly connected to the unit?
≥
You cannot directly connect to the unit. Connect through the amplifier etc.
The TV has both S-VIDEO IN
terminal and COMPONENT VIDEO
IN terminals. Which terminal should
I connect with?
≥
We recommend the COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminal. Component signal outputs the
color difference signals (P
B
/P
R
) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve
high fidelity in reproducing colors. If the TV is compatible with progressive output, a high
quality picture can be output because the unit’s component video output terminal outputs
a progressive output signal.

All Panasonic TVs that have 480p input terminals are compatible. Consult the
manufacturer if you have another brand of TV.
