Connecting to a TV (Using the component video jacks)

Interlaced outputs

Some TVs or monitors are equipped with component video

inputs. Connecting to these inputs allows you to enjoy higher

quality picture playback.

Actual labels for component video inputs may vary depending

on the TV manufacturer. (ex. Y, R-Y, B-Y or Y, C

B

, C

R

)

In  some TVs  or  monitors,  the  colour  levels  of  the  playback

picture  may  be  reduced  slightly  or  the  tint  may  change.  In

such  a  case,  adjust  the  TV  or  monitor  for  optimum

performance.

Progressive outputs

Some TVs  or  monitors  are  equipped  with  component  video

inputs that are capable of reproducing a progressively scanned

video signal.  Connecting to these inputs allows you to view the

highest quality pictures with less flicker.
Consumers should note that not all high definition television

sets  are  fully  compatible  with  this  product  and  may  cause

artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 or 625

progressive  scan  picture  problems,  it  is  recommended  that

the  user  switch  the  connection  to  the  “standard  definition”

output. If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility

with this model 525p or 625p DVD player, please contact our

Customer Service Center.

Connecting to a TV (continued)

Switching  the  output  signal  (interlaced  /

normal picture, press 

PROGRESSIVE

 button repeatedly

to turn off progressive mode.

Notes

• Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected equipment as well.

• When you connect the DVD video player to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all of the 

equipment from the wall outlet before making any connections.

• If you place the DVD video player near a tuner or radio, the radio broadcast sound might be distorted. In this case, 

place the DVD video player away from the tuner and radio.

• The output sound of the DVD video player has a wide dynamic range. Be sure to adjust the receiver’s volume to a 

moderate listening level. Otherwise, high volume sound may damage your hearing as well as the speakers.

• Turn off the amplifier before you connect or disconnect the DVD video player’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier 

power on the speakers may be damaged.

• When the TV system is set to NTSC mode, all output will be forced to NTSC type (eg. 525p (480p), 525i (480i), etc.)

• When the TV system is set to PAL mode, all output will be forced to PAL type (eg. 625p (576p), 625i (576i), etc.)

• Analogue audio out will not have sound if DTS playback is selected.
