Selecting Progressive Scan (525p/480p or Interlaced 525i/480i) Playback

¡If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (525p/480p), connect the TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks of

the DVD player and set “PROGRESSIVE” to “ON” in the display setting. Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode. Refer to page 26 for instructions on changing the display setting.

¡If your TV is not compatible with progressive scanning, set “PROGRESSIVE” to “OFF”.

¡Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TV or monitors is the BNC type.

What is Progressive Scanning?

¡Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan system provides less flickering and images in higher resolution

than that of traditional (525i/480i) television signals.

CONNECTIONS

The following show examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player either TV and other components. If using this DVD player to playback a DVD in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround or DTS surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks. Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround sound and DTS sound can also be output from the 5.1 CH OUTPUT jacks. By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard, which can be heard in movie theaters. Use an audio coaxial or optical digital cable (not included) for the audio connections. Use audio cables (commercially available ) for the 5.1 CH audio connection.

NOTES:

• Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.

• Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to the

DVD player.

NOTES:

• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the

copy protection system.

• S-Video output connector The video signals are divided into color (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture. If the TV is equipped with a S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to the this product’s S-Video output connector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.

HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS

If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not included. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details. If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.

NOTE:

• The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal

through an RF Modulator.
