USER MANUAL DVD-HD008
NOTE: If you have connected the DVD-HD008 to a Home Theatre System
using the Coaxial Digital Audio cable you may need to also connect the RCA
Stereo Connection to your TV To allow Audio to be heard through the TV
when it is not convenient to have the Home Theatre System turned on.
•Combinations of Audio and Video Connections are possible depending on the
equipment the player is to be connected to. Please refer to the equipment user
manual to determine the method or combination that best suits your needs.
CONNECTING THE PLAYER
•HDMI can transmit both audio and video signals over a single cable. If you have an
HDMI capable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply run an HDMI
cable from the player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio on the receiver (see
your receiver’s owners’ manual for more information). The receiver usually has an
HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to pass the video signal.
•HDMI is a wonderful thing. A single cable can transport both audio AND video from
your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an evolving standard,
and there could be compatibility issues. A receiver that supports audio input over
HDMI is required.
•Some receivers offer HDMI ports solely for video switching. If your receiver does not
have audio input capability, please read the following sections regarding other
connection methods.
•In order to play multi-channel audio for all formats, the receiver must support HDMI
v1.1 or later. A receiver that supports HDMI v1.3 with decoding capability for Dolby
TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred. Please check the specifications of
your receiver to ensure that it meets the requirements.
•Due to bandwidth limitations, high resolution audio formats such as Dolby Digital
Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master Audio cannot be
sent through the coaxial digital audio output. A reduced resolution version of the
same audio track will be output instead. To listen to high resolution audio formats in
their best quality, please use the HDMI connection if you have a receiver that
handles HDMI audio.
Due to copyright restrictions and bandwidth limitations, full resolution audio from DVD Audio discs
cannot be sent through the coaxial or optical digital audio output. To listen to DVD-Audio in full
resolution, please use the HDMI or analogue audio connections.
