Connecting the DVD player —Continued
• Connect the DVD player directly to your TV. If you
connect the DVD player through a VCR, TV/VCR
combination, or video selector, the picture may be dis-
torted because DVD-Video discs are usually copy pro-
tected.
Using S-Video
If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-Video input,
you can use this instead of the standard (composite) out-
put for a better quality picture.
• Use an S-Video cable (not supplied) to connect the S
VIDEO OUTPUT to an S-Video input on your TV (or
monitor or AV receiver).
Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same
mark on the plug before plugging in.
Using Component Video
You can use the component video output instead of the
standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV
(or other equipment).
This will provide better quality picture than S-Video.
• Use a component video cable (not supplied) to con-
nect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks to a
component video input on your TV (or monitor or AV
receiver).
If you connect the component video output to a TV or
another component that doesn’t support progressive
scanning, be sure to turn off HDMI (see page 43).
You can set the component video output to Progressive
or Interlaced (see page 43).

Using SCART (European model only)
If your TV has a SCART-type AV input, you can use a
SCART cable to connect this player to your TV. This
type of connection carries both the sound and the picture,
so there’s no need to connect up the AUDIO OUTPUT
L/R and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
• Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to connect the AV
CONNECTOR to an AV input on your TV.
This connector can output composite video, S-Video, or
RGB video. The default setting is composite, which
should work with all TVs. Consult the manual that came
with your TV to see if you can use one of the higher qual-
ity settings. See page 48 for how to change the video out-
put.
