Step 2:  Connecting to TV

This connection enables you to view the 
video playback from this unit. You only 
need to choose 

one

 of the options 

below to make the video connection.
–  For a standard TV, follow option 1.
–  For a progressive scan TV, follow 
option 2.

Helpful Hints:
–  It is important to connect this unit directly 
to the TV in order to enjoy optimum video 
quality.
–  To hear the TV audio through this unit, 
connect the AUDIO IN sockets on the unit to 
the audio output sockets on your TV (audio 
cables not supplied). Press TV on the remote 
control when watching the TV programs.

Option 1: Connecting to the Video 
socket

  Use a composite video cable (yellow - 

supplied) to connect the 

CVBS 

socket 

on the main unit to the video input 
socket (or labeled as A/V In, Video In, 
Composite or Baseband) on the TV.

 It provides good picture quality..

Option 2: Connecting to a 
Progressive Scan TV or component 
video input

The progressive scan video quality is only 
available when using Y Pb Pr connection 
and a progressive scan TV is required. It 
provides superior picture quality when 
watching DVD movies.

A

 Use the component video cables (red/ 

blue/green - not supplied) to connect the 

Y Pb Pr

 sockets on the main unit to the 

corresponding component video input 
sockets (or labeled as Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr or 
YUV) on the TV.

 It provides better picture quality.

B

 If your TV accepts progressive signals, 

proceed to chapter ‘Getting Started - 
Setting up Progressive Scan feature’ for 
detailed progressive feature setup.
