Home theater video connections
Important: Before making or changing any rear panel connec-
tions, make sure that all components are switched off and unplugged
from the wall outlet.
This player outputs video in a number of different ways. Choose the
one most suitable for your system using the guide below.
Connecting SCART and S-Video cables
SCART and S-Video cables will only plug in one way, so make sure the
plug is correctly lined up with the jack before inserting. Be sure to
fully insert for a good connection.
Note: The AV1(RGB)-TV connector can output composite, S-
Video or RGB component video; the
AV2 SCART connector only
outputs composite video. If you connect just one TV, use the AV1
(RGB)-TV connector. You can select the type of video output by
changing the
Video Out setting in the Setup Menu.
S-Video or composite video?
S-Video should give a better picture, so if you have an S-Video input,
use it. S-Video cables are available from any good audio/visual dealer.
Setting the TV System switch
Set the TV SYSTEM switch to match the TV system in your country
or region. If you have a multi-system TV that can display both PAL
and NTSC signals, set this switch to
AUTO . This will allow you to
watch both PAL and NTSC Video CDs and DVD discs.
This system can convert NTSC to PAL, so setting this switch to PAL
will enable you to watch any PAL or NTSC disc.
This system can also convert PAL to NTSC, but only for Video CDs, so
setting this switch to
NTSC will limit you to NTSC DVD discs.
Setting the component video switch
You only need to set this switch if you’re using an NTSC TV/
monitor connected via the component video outputs of this player.
This player can output NTSC video as a standard interlaced signal
(the
525i(480i) setting), or as a non-interlaced, or progressive
scan signal (the 525p(480p) setting). Generally, however, you
should leave it set to MENU , which makes this setting switchable
from the on-screen Setup menu. Switch manually if you have chosen
a setting from the Setup menu that is incompatible with your
television/monitor and therefore can’t see any picture.

If your TV has a SCART input, we recommend using it
to connect directly to the
AV1(RGB)-TV or AV2 output
on this player.
If your TV/monitor has component video inputs instead of a SCART
input, connect them to the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on
this player.
If neither SCART nor component inputs are available to you,
connect this player to your TV or AV receiver using either the
VIDEO OUT or S-VIDEO OUT jacks.
See Setting the TV System switch and Setting the
component video switch below.
