AND CONNECTIONSETTINGS INITIAL
TV (with external input jacks)
You will not be able to hear all of the sound being output by the Product if you use the supplied VIDEO/AUDIO cable to a monaural TV that has only one AUDIO input jack.
•Make sure that colours of the jacks and plugs match up when connecting the cable.
•Connect the Product directly to the TV. If you attempt to view video on a TV connected via a VCR, the copy protection function will scramble the picture.
•If you want to listen to the audio through audio equipment, connect only the VIDEO cable to the TV.
Using the Component Colour (Y, PB (CB) and PR (CR)) Output Jacks
Colour Output Jacks (Y, PB (CB) and
PR (CR)):
Some TVs and monitors are equipped with input jacks for the component colour signals (Y, PB (CB) and PR (CR)). By connecting these input jacks to the corresponding output jacks on the Product, you can enjoy higher quality playback images.
If you are using a TV or monitor equipped with Y, PB (CB) and PR (CR) jacks, use these jacks rather than the S-VIDEO OUT jack.

Digital Connection to an MD to Record a CD
Some Audio CDs and VIDEO CDs have a short silent section between musical tracks. When sound from discs such as these is digitally recorded by connecting the Product directly to a digital recorder (such as an MD player), the music may be recorded continuously and track numbers may be lost.
■ Digital Connection to Audio Equipment or MD Player without a Dolby Digital Decoder
•Audio CD or VIDEO CD
Play the disc as you normally would, with the audio mode set to “L+R” (see page 85). With a digital connection, audio of a disc recorded with DTS sounds abnormal in this case.
•DVD
With a digital connection, audio cannot be produced from a DVD recorded with Dolby Digital (5.1 channel), Dolby Surround (Pro Logic), DTS or MPEG Audio, so you should use an analogue connection to play such discs. Discs with linear PCM audio should play normally.
•This connection is not possible if the processor or amplifier to which you want to connect does not have a coaxial digital input jack.

above.
