Connecting to Other Devices
Before using your DVD player for the first time, you will need to connect it to a display. In
addition, you may want to connect the player to a separate audio system.
Connecting to a Display Using HDMI
The HDMI output on your DVD player provides the highest
quality video available.
To connect to a display using HDMI:
1. Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI output on the
player to the HDMI input on the display.
2. (OPTIONAL) To connect the audio output to the display as well, use two RCA cables to
connect the front left (FL) and front right (FR) audio jacks on the rear of the player to the
display’s audio input.

4. Select the desired video resolution by setting HD Resolution under the Video setup menu.
5. Select the appropriate Aspect Ratio, View Mode, and TV System settings under the Video
setup menu.
Connecting to a Display Using Component Video
The component video output on your DVD
player provides very high quality video.
To connect to a display using component
video:
1. Use three RCA cables to connect the Y, Pb/Cb,
and Pr/Cr jacks on the rear of the player to
the corresponding component video inputs
on the display.
2. (OPTIONAL) To connect the audio output to
the display as well, use two RCA cables to
connect the front left (FL) and front right
(FR) audio jacks on the rear of the player to
the display’s audio input.

Connecting to Other Devices
Connecting to a Display Using S-Video
S-Video provides better image quality than
composite video, but lower image quality than
component video. It is available on most
displays.
Note: The pins used in S-Video connectors are
fragile. Use care when handling S-Video
cables to avoid bending or breaking pins.
To connect to a display using S-Video:
1. Using an S-Video cable, connect the S-VIDEO
output on the player to the S-Video input on
the display.
2. (OPTIONAL) To connect the audio output to
the display as well, use two RCA cables to
connect the front left (FL) and front right
(FR) audio jacks on the rear of the player to
the display’s audio input.
3. Select S-Video as the Video Out setting
under the Video setup menu on the player (see “Configuring the Player” on page 20).

Connecting to a Display Using Composite Video
Composite video, though the lowest quality of
the three video outputs on the player, is the
most common format and so can be found on
just about any display.
To connect to a display using composite
video:
1. Using the included audio/video cable (see the
accessories on page 2), connect one yellow
RCA connector to the composite video input
on the display, and attach the other yellow
RCA connector to the yellow VIDEO jack on
the rear of the player.
2. (OPTIONAL) To connect the audio output to
the display as well, use the red (right) and
white (left) RCA connectors on the included
audio/video cable to connect the front right
(FR) and front left (FL) audio jacks on the
rear of the player to the display’s audio
input.
