Hookups 9  
Determining the best possible connection...  
The capabilities of your existing equipment, especially your TV, will determine your connection possibilities.  
However, the following guidelines describe which options provide the best picture and sound quality.  
૽૽૽૽  
ComponentVideo or Progressive ScanVideo provides the best picture quality. Details are on  
page 12.  
૽૽૽  
૽૽  
૽૽  
S-Video provides excellent picture quality. Details are on page 11.  
CompositeVideo (a yellowVideo jack) provides good picture quality. Details are on page 10.  
Your TV may have only an RF-style jack, usually labeled Antenna In or 75 ohm or RF In.You will  
need an RF modulator in order to view the DVD Player at your TV. See your electronics retail-  
er for details on RF modulator availability and operations.  
૽૽૽૽  
૽૽૽  
Digital audio connections provide the clearest sound, but you must have a digital stereo receiv-  
er. Connect either the DVD Player’s COAXIAL or OPTICAL digital audio out jack to your  
Stereo for the best sound quality. Details are on page 14.  
If digital connections are not possible, connect one pair (Right and Left) of the DVD Player’s  
red and white AUDIO OUT jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo or TV. Details are on  
pages 10-13.  
If your TV has a single Audio In jack instead of separate left/right Audio In jacks, you will need a  
different audio cable than the one supplied.You need a “splitter” audio cable to go from the  
left/right AUDIO OUT jacks of the DVD Player to the single Audio In jack on your TV. See an  
electronics retailer for details.  
Before you begin...  
Refer to the manuals of your TV, Stereo, or other equipment as necessary. Note the style of jacks and  
connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In channels  
on your other equipment so you can see and hear the DVD Player on the TV, Stereo, etc.  
Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power outlets only  
after you have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment con-  
nected to the power outlet.  
Remember...  
Connect the DVD Player directly to the TV. For example, do not connect the DVD Player to aVCR,  
then connect theVCR to a TV.This type of connection may distort the picture and sound.Also, your  
VCR might have the copy protection system, which could distort the DVD image or prevent playback  
of some Discs.  
Set the TV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN,  
AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1 or EXT2 or External In, etc.These channels are often near channel  
00. See your TV manual for details. Or, change TV channels until you see the DVD screen saver on the  
TV.  
Set the Stereo to the correct channel or “source” mode.  
Do not connect the DVD Player’s AUDIO OUT jacks to the PHONO IN jack of your Stereo.  
You only need one audio connection and one video connection between the DVD Player and your TV  
and/or Stereo. So, you might not use all the jacks on the DVD Player.  
If you use S-Video or ComponentVideo (Y PB PR), setVIDEO OUTPUT accordingly. Details are on page  
34.  
If you connect the DVD Player to a TV using theY PB PR jacks and your TV has Progressive Scan, press  
the PROGRESSIVE SCAN button on the front of the DVD Player. Details are on page 17.  
There are two sets of AUDIO OUT jacks in case you want to connect the DVD Player to additional  
equipment. For example, you can use one set of AUDIO OUT jacks for the connection to the TV, and  
use the second pair of AUDIO OUT jacks to connect to a Stereo. Make sure you connect a Right and a  
Left AUDIO OUT jack to each piece of equipment. If you are connecting to a single TV only, you will  
not use both sets of AUDIO OUT jacks.  
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 10-14. Follow the  
steps for the hookup you choose.

44 Glossary  
Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific  
numerical values.Analog sound is available when you use the red and white audio jacks on your equipment.  
These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.  
AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the rear of the DVD Player that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo  
Receiver, etc.).  
CD: Compact Disc.  
Chapter: A part of a Title.  
COAXIAL jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo Receiver, allowing you to adjust the volume at the Receiver.  
The Receiver must have a Coaxial In jack.This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard  
in movie theaters.  
ComponentVideoY PB PR Jacks: The Out jacks on the rear of the DVD Player that send high-quality  
video to a TV that has ComponentVideo In jacks.These jacks can send either Progressive Scan video or  
Component/Interlaced video.  
Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the  
COAXIAL or OPTICAL jacks on the Player.These jacks send audio through multiple channels, instead of just  
two channels as analog does.  
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters.  
DTS: Digital Theater Systems.This is a surround sound system, but it is different from Dolby Digital.The for-  
mats were developed by different companies.  
DVD: DigitalVideo Disc.  
Letterbox: Widescreen format; a TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in full-width, with black  
bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen.This format is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc  
does not include a letterbox format, selecting 4:3 letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVDs are  
two-sided, with one side playing in widescreen format and the other side playing in a normal format.)  
OPTICAL Jack: Converts electrical signals into optical signals before sending the audio to the Stereo  
Receiver. Optical audio is not prone to external electrical influences and has less noise, reducing adverse  
effects on external equipment. (Keep the protective cap on the jack when the jack is not in use.)  
Pan & Scan: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-height picture with one or both  
sides of the picture trimmed to fit on your TV screen. Some movie companies refer to this as “reformatting  
the picture to fit your TV screen.”  
PBC: Playback Control.A special feature on someVideo CDs/SuperVideo CDs that enables interactive use.  
PCM: Pulse Code Modulation. A digital audio encoding system.  
RGB: Red-Green-Blue.A top-quality video connection where red, green, and blue components of the picture  
are carried through separate wires.This also is referred to as the component video connection.  
S-Video: Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color.  
Title: A unit of recording on a DVD.  
TV system: There are various systems for transmitting television signals, for example PAL, SECAM, and  
NTSC. NTSC is the most common color system in the United States of America.  
VCD: Video Compact Disc.  
VIDEO OUT Jack: Jack on the rear of the DVD Player that sends video (picture) to a TV.
