S-video
S-video provides a better connection for the video portion of the
signal than composite video (yellow color terminal). When
connecting S-video cable, a Composite video cable (yellow RCA
connector) must also be used.
Analog input
If you have no VCR, TV or SAT, you can connect any other
compatible components like TAPE player to your DVD receiver via
the VCR/SAT input.

Component video output
Component video terminal provides the best connection for video. By separating the color information (Pb/Pr) and the
luminance signal (Y), the image is improved comparing with S-video or composite video connection (result may vary on
different TV / monitor). If your TV is equipped with these terminals (e.g. Y/Pb/Pr, Y/Cb/Cr, Y/B-Y/R-Y), use an
appropriate video cable (75 Ohm) and connect to the system. Make sure to match the terminal color.
Progressive Scan
- It is necessary to use component video connection to enjoy progressive scan.
- Connect to a TV that has 480P input terminal or compatible with copy guard system, else the image will not be
displayed properly.
- If progressive scan is ON, there will be no video signal output at s-video and composite video monitor output. (Please
refer to page 20 for details of activating progressive scan function)
