CONNECTIONS
English
The following shows examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to TV and other
components. If using this DVD player to play back a DVD in a Dolby Digital Multi-channel surround or DTS
surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL
DIGITAL OUT jacks. By connecting the player to a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder, you can enjoy more
convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surrounding sound of a professional standard
which can be heard in movie theatres. Use an Optical (commercially available) or Audio Coaxial Digital cable
(commercially available) for the audio connections.
NOTES:
• Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.
• Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to the DVD player.

NOTES (for Method 2 only):
• When using an AV amplifier with a built-in decoder (AV control centre), Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG decoder as shown in
the Method 2, set DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS or MPEG to BITSTREAM accordingly for audio output in the setup menu (refer
to page 30). Set it to PCM for the decoder that is not used currently. Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may
generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers.
• The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital Multi-channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD
deck or DAT deck.
• Set DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS and MPEG to PCM, for audio output in the setup menu for connecting to an MD deck or DAT
deck (refer to page 30).
• Harsh noise that could harm your ears or the speakers is generated when a DVD recorded in DTS is played back while
using a decoder, etc., that is not DTS-compatible.
• When playing back a copyright-protected 96kHz linear PCM DVD, the digital sound will be down sampled at 48kHz, even if
you set LPCM SELECT to OFF (refer to page 30).
• Super Audio CD sound is not output from the DIGITAL OUT jacks.
Optical cable (commercially available)
• Optical cable (commercially available) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops
with a diameter of 15 cm or more when storing them.
• Use a cable which is 3 m or shorter.
• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.
• If a plug has dust or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.

Connection to a TV (for video)
• Method 1 DVD Player + TV with 21-pin Scart Input Jack
• Method 2 DVD Player + TV with Video Input Jack
• Method 3 DVD Player + TV with S-Video Input Jack
• Method 4 DVD Player + TV with Component Video Input Jacks
NOTES:
• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the Audio/Video cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due
to the copy protection system.
• S-Video output connector
The video signals are divided into colour (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture.
If the TV is equipped with an S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to this unit’s S-Video output connector
using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.
HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS
Even if your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks, it is still possible to connect this DVD player
to your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator (commercially
available). Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF
Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial
antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details.
If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove
that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator
(usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.
NOTE:
• The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal
through an RF Modulator.

Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display equipment
(or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is
copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV equipment.
This player supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display equipment (or AV amplifier) for more information.
*HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface
NOTES:
• When using HDCP-incompatible display equipment, the image will not be viewed properly.
• When the PURE DIRECT button on the front panel is turned on, not only HDMI images but sounds are not output (refer to page 17).
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this
player cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) may
be limited by the equipment that is connected.
• When playing a Super Audio CD with an HDMI connection, audio cannot be transferred beyond the CD layer. Make an
analogue connection for this.
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with
equipment such as this, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.
• When the set’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI
converter cable (commercially available), the signals are output in digital RGB.
“HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered

After you made all necessary connections, connect the AC cord to the AC inlet. Then connect the AC cord to
the AC outlet.
