To video input
(yellow)
• Ensure that the power switch of this unit and other equipment to be
connected is set to off before commencing connection.
• Do not block ventilation holes of any of the equipment and arrange
them so that air can circulate freely.
• Read through the instructions before connecting other equipment.
• Ensure that you observe the color coding when connecting audio and
video cables.
• Select the appropriate screen shape at the initial setting “TV Aspect ”
according to your TV set (4:3 or 16:9), see page 26.
Connecting to a stereo TV set and stereo or Pro Logic Amplifier/Receiver
Note:
• If the DVD/CD player is connected to the TV through a video cassette
recorder, the picture may not be played back normally with some DVDs.
If this is the case, do not connect the player via the VCR.
• The S (separate) video output connector separates the color (C) and
luminance (Y) signals before transmitting them to the TV set in order to
achieve a sharper picture. Use the S-video cable (optional) when connecting the player to a TV set equipped with an S-video input for
improved picture clarity.
• Most European TV´s are equipped with SCART connectors rather than
with a normal video input (yellow cinch). In that case the SCART connection should be used, providing the audio signal too,(see page 8).
Use separate analog audio connections to TV only if your TV is
connected to the video or S-video output.
• When the audio signal is fed to stereo or Pro Logic amplifiers/decoders
or receivers rather than to the TV, connect the Audio Out jacks to any
normal audio input on your amplifier/decoder/receiver. The DVD10 will
”downmix” Dolby Digital recordings to Pro Logic, available on these
connectors, all analog surround or stereo signals will be fed to them
directly.

Setup and Connections
Connecting to a receiver/amplifier with Dolby
Digital (AC-3) or DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

Digital or DTS bitstream is output from the player’s OPTICAL or COAXIAL
digital audio output. When the player is connected to a Dolby Digital or
DTS decoder, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home. An optical digital audio cable or coaxial audio cable (both optional) is required
for these connections, as shown below.

• Note: With multiple video sources, your Audio/Video device can be
used for selecting the video signal and routing it to the TV. Connect the
video or S-video output of the DVD10 (whatever is provided with your
device) to the video or S-video input on your device and the video/Svideo output of this device to your TV. For more details,see the manual
of your Audio/Video amplifier/receiver.

Important Notes on SCART and RGB format:
• Your DVD10 is equipped with two SCART connectors, one for direct
connection to the TV, the second (AUX) for throughput of VCR or any
other video source to a TV with only one SCART input. The signal from
this video source will be routed through the SCART connector of the
DVD to the TV automatically when the unit plays (composite video
only).
• Both SCART connectors provide the video signal as well as audio
(stereo L/R) signals.

• The SCART connector for the TV provides the composite video signal as
well as the direct RGB signal, delivering the best video performance
possible.To view RGB video on your TV, the RGB compatible SCART
connector must be used. Configure this connector to RGB (e.g.in the
TV’s menu), if necessary. Note that with RGB video the colour intensity
cannot be adjusted.
• When the RGB video signal is used,DVD´s recorded with the NTSC format (with regional code ”Zero” ) or 4 can be viewed on Non-NTSC
compatible TVs.
