Preparations
Connections
Before using the player, connect the player to a TV and/or
amplifier.
Before making connections
• Do not connect the AC power cord until all other
connections have been made.
• Connect VIDEO OUT of the player directly to the video
input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the player to a
TV via a VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing
back a copy-protected disc. You may also have a monitor
problem when connecting the player to an integrated TV/
Video system.
Connecting to a TV
The following sections A to C describe TV connections where
only a TV is connected to the player so that you will hear audio
from the TV.
A Connecting to a conventional TV
NOTE
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV
COMPU LINK function. See “AV COMPU LINK remote control
system” on page 33 for details.
• In the following description, “TV” may be substituted with
“monitor” or “projector.”
• Terminal names used for other components may be different
from those used in the following description.
NOTE
If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need
to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio output
to monaural.

C Connecting to a TV with component jacks.
You can enjoy picture of high-fidelity color reproduction by
connecting the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on the player to
your TV.
NOTES
• Connect “Y” to “Y,” “PB” to “PB” (CB ), “PR” to “PR” (CR) correctly.
• If your TV has component video input jacks of BNC type, use an
adapter which converts a pin jack to a BNC jack (not supplied).
Progressive scan video playback available
In the Progressive scanning mode, you can enjoy high quality
picture with less flickers when the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT
jacks are connected to a TV or monitor that supports the
progressive video input.
About the scanning mode
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs
can be classified into two types; film source and video source
(note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source
and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-persecond information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded
as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-second interlaced)
information.
When the player plays back a film source material,
uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the
original information. When a video source material is played
back, the player interleaves lines between the interlaced lines
on each to create the interpolated picture and outputs as the
progressive signal.

Selecting the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR position
• If your television equipped with component jacks does not
support the progressive scanning mode
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “480i.”
• If your television equipped with component jacks supports the
progressive scanning mode
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “480p.”
• If you want to select the scanning mode between the interlace
and progressive modes (depending on the source condition, or
when connecting more than one television, etc.)
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “REMOTE.”
Thus you can select the mode from the remote control unit.
NOTE
You must change the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR position while
the player power is off. Otherwise, the changed setting is not
effective.
Activating the Progressive scanning mode using the remote
control unit
When the player is turned on and the VIDEO SIGNAL
SELECTOR is set to “REMOTE,” press and hold down VFP PROGRESSIVE SCAN for a few seconds.
The scanning mode switches between the Progressive scanning
and Interlaced scanning modes.
When the scanning mode is set to the Progressive mode, the
PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel turns on.
Depending on the [PICTURE SOURCE] setting on the
[PICTURE] preference display (see page 27) and whether the
current DVD VIDEO disc is film-source or video-source, the color
of the indicator differs, as shown in the table below.

TV.
• There are some progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets
that are not fully compatible with the player, resulting in the
unnatural picture when playing back a DVD VIDEO disc in the

You can enjoy sound of enhanced quality by connecting the
player’s DIGITAL OUT (either OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack to a
digital input of an amplifier, etc., using an optical or coaxial digital
cable. The digital audio signal on a disc will be transferred directly
from the player. If the connected digital audio equipment is a
Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in
decoder, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.

NOTES
• If you change the [RESUME] setting from [DISC RESUME] to

playback of the disc.
• When you resume playback, set the [RESUME] setting to [DISC
RESUME] before removing a loaded disc.
• If you interrupt the playback of a disc for which an interrupted
position has already been stored, the memory will be updated
with the new interrupted position.
• For a double-sided DVD VIDEO disc, the player regards each
side as a different disc. Therefore, to resume playback of such a
disc, the disc must be inserted with the same side down.
• When the player memorizes an interrupted point for a disc, it
also memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings.
• The player may not resume playback exactly from the
interrupted point. In the case of an SVCD/Video CD disc with
PBC function, the player may resume playback from a point
slightly earlier or later than the point where playback was
interrupted.
• When you change Video CD playback mode to program or
random play, the memory of the interrupted position goes off,
then the player cannot resume playback.
• Pressing DVD/CARD cancels the memory of the interrupted
position of the playback.
