Connecting your AV components
Connecting a DVD Player with 2-Channel (L/R) Audio Output
5. Connecting a DVD player (DVD)
Using an RCA video cable, connect the video output jack
(composite) of the DVD player to the DVD V IN jack of the DTR-
6.4/5.4. Or if the DVD player has an S video output jack, connect it
to the DVD S IN jack with an S video cable. Or if the device has
component video outputs, connect them to the COMPONENT
VIDEO INPUT 1 or 2 jacks on the DTR-6.4/5.4.
With the initial settings of the DTR-6.4/5.4, the DVD input
source is set for the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1 jacks.
If you connect the DVD player to the COMPONENT VIDEO
INPUT 2 jacks, this must be changed at “Input Setup” →
“Component Video” (see page 34).
Using an RCA audio connection cable, connect the audio output
jacks of the DVD player to the DVD FRONT L/R jacks of the DTR-
6.4/5.4. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the
L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
If the device has a 5.1-channel output, connect the DVD FRONT L/
R, SURR L/R, CENTER, and SUBWOOFER (5.1-channel input)
jacks of the DTR-6.4/5.4 to the 5.1-channel output jacks of the
DVD player (refer to right diagram for the connection examples).
Make sure that you properly connect the left channels to the L jacks
and the right channels to the R jacks.
If the device has a digital output, connect it to either the DIGITAL
IN COAXIAL jack or the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL jack of the DTR-
6.4/5.4 depending on the type of connector on the DVD player.
With the initial settings of the DTR-6.4/5.4, the DVD input
source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 1 jack (OPT 1).
If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be
changed at “Input Setup” → “Digital Input” (see page 34).
Note:
If the DVD player has both 5.1-channel audio outputs and 2-
channel audio outputs, and you want to connect the DVD player
only using the FRONT L/R jacks on the DTR-6.4/5.4, use the 2-
channel audio output jacks on the DVD player.
