DIGITAL OUTPUT ..............................................32
Toshiba HD-S25 Digital High Definition Receiver opens up to a new world of free-to-air
terrestrial HDTV (High Definition Television) and SDTV (Standard Definition Television)
programs. The receiver can receive channels from both VHF and UHF bands. All the
major terrestrial free-to-air station numbers currently available in your area are listed in
the on-screen menu. To watch a channel, simply select the channel number and you will
be accessing a wide range of high quality digital programs.
The receiver is fully MPEG 2 / DVB-T compliant, delivering high definition crystal-sharp
video and Dolby® Digital sound. As it supports a channel frequency range of
51-858MHz, it can be easily programmed for all the channels within the VHF and UHF
frequency bands. To find out the channel frequencies in your area, please contact your
local service provider.
FEATURES
HD 1080i Capability
High Definition (HD) brings a wide-screen format to the home television as well as a sharper picture.
This receiver corresponds with 1080i signal input and it fully recreates high definition screen quality.
Dolby® Digital1
Dolby® Digital is the surround sound technology used in theatres showing the latest movies, and is now
available to reproduce this realistic effect in the home. You can enjoy motion pictures and live concert
TV programs with this dynamic realistic sound by connecting HD-S25 receiver to a 6-channel amplifier
equipped with a Dolby® Digital decoder.
Teletext/Fastext
Fastext is a method of viewing Teletext pages by related subjects grouped by the broadcast studio. You
can access any given topic shown on the screen simply by pressing the corresponding colored text
select button on the remote control. Note that the Fastext feature is not available in Australia.
PIP (Picture-in-Picture)
This feature gives you the ability to view 2 different channels at the same time. One program can be
viewed on the main screen while the other is simultaneously displayed in a smaller viewing window,
often positioned in one corner of the screen.
Still Picture Display
Allows you to take a snapshot of a video at a particular instant as a still picture.
Wide-screen Picture Format
Wide-screen is the term given to picture displays that have a wider aspect ratio than normal. For example, the
aspect ratio for conventional TVs is 4:3 and for wide-screen TVs is 16:9. This receiver supports broadcasts in
both formats.
Video Format Auto-Switch
The HD-S25 receiver has the capability of automatically switching the output video format to match the
native video format as sent by the broadcaster.
AUX
For people having TVs with only one set of Component Video inputs, this “AUX” feature allows you to
play your DVD movies via the “AUX INPUT” connectors located at the back of the HD-S25 receiver.

INSTALLING THE RECEIVER
Follow steps A to C below. Your receiver will be ready to display digital programs on your
TV.
STEP A: CONNECTIONS
DO NOT PLUG THE RECEIVER INTO THE MAINS YET.
Before you use this receiver, it is necessary to connect it to your TV.
1. CONNECTING TO TV
1-1. Connection to Antenna
Disconnect the antenna cable from your TV and connect it to the “ANT.IN” terminal on the back of
the receiver.
1-2. “RF OUT” Connection to TV or VCR
This “RF OUT” provides you a RF loop-through function to receive analogue TV programs as well as
digital programs. Use an RF coaxial cable (not supplied) to connect the HD-S25 “RF OUT” terminal to
TV’s or VCR’s antenna input.
Before connecting or disconnecting the antenna cable, turn off the receiver and
antenna booster, if any.

1-3. Connections to TV – Video Connection
In the accessory box, you will find two sets of cables: One is the component video cable (with red, green
and blue connectors) and the other is the Audio/Video cable (with yellow, white and red connectors).
For better video quality, we recommend that you use the Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable or the RGBHV video
cable (with 5 RCA connectors). Both of these cables are not included in the HD-S25 package.
You have 5 choices for connecting the video output from the receiver to your TV. Use only one of the
following connections (with (a) or (b) being the best choice):
(a) Mini D-Sub15-pin connection: If your TV has a RGB Mini D-Sub 15-pin video input
12
connector, use a Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable (not supplied) to connect the receiver to your TV. Set
the MODE-Switch (refer to page 8) to RGB, and then connect the RGB connector on the rear
of the receiver to the corresponding socket on the TV.
Do not connect any PC monitor to the receiver via Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable.
Some HD-ready TV may not display some specific video format via Mini D-Sub 15-pin video
connection. In this case, please press V.FORMAT button to change to an appropriate fixed
format. (For more details, please refer to Appendix 2 System Setup Table in page 50).
