1.4. Audio/Video Outputs
DVD Video Out:
1V peak-to-peak (p-p), 75 ohms
DVD Audio Out:
1V RMS (0db FS), 600 ohms
Auxiliary Video In:
1V p-p, 75 ohms
Auxiliary Audio Line In:
1V RMS nominal, 4.7k ohms; Max Input Voltage 5.8V p-p
Switched Video Out:
1V p-p, 75 ohms; unity gain from auxiliary video input
Switched Audio Out:
Unity gain from auxiliary audio input is 600 ohms
Note
: While there is an accepted standard of 1V p-p for video signals, the audio output
level from different devices can vary considerably. If there is a large difference in audio
level when switching between the DVD player and the auxiliary input, try adjusting the
audio output level of the auxiliary device. If there is no output adjustment and the audio
level from the auxiliary device is higher than the DVD player audio, then use a
potentiometer, step-down transformer, or resistors to attenuate the auxiliary audio level.
If the auxiliary audio level is lower than the DVD player audio, then install a line-level
amplifier or step-up transformer to boost the signal.
