Connecting Video Components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown on the following page. Regarding a DVD there are
two types of connections to make, video and audio.
Hook up your video signal with either component video, S video or composite video cords (the quality
descends in this order). See "Video Converter" on previous page.
For the audio signal, in order to use digital soundtracks like Dolby Digital, MPEG or DTS you must hook up
a digital input, with either a coaxial or optical cord (see p.25). It is also a good idea to hook up your
components with analog audio connections as well, since some DVDs may not output a digital audio
track. A DVD/LD player or LD player requires a specialized 2 RF connection (shown at the very top of the
first diagram below) to cover the all possible soundtracks on laser discs.
If you want to record from your DVD player composite (or S video) cord connections and analog audio
connections are necessary.
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
Connecting a DVD, DVD/LD or LD player
Hook up your audio signal with either a coaxial or optical digital cords (you don't need to do both). For
DVD/LD or LD players, if your player has a 2 RF output hook up the 2 RF connection as well (with a
coaxial cord). This will ensure you can use all LDs (see below). If you hook up your DVD/LD player using
component video cable connections you might need to setup your DVD player for component video
output as well. See your DVD manual for details. If you have a DVD-A or Super Audio CD compatible
player, see "Connecting to the Multi Channel Analog Inputs" on page 23.
You need to hook up your audio with analog connections as well.
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
memo
• If your digital connections are different than the default settings you will need to assign
the digital jacks to the proper component(s) with the "Assigning the Digital Inputs"
procedure. See page 80 to do this.
• If you use component video cords to hook up any of you equipment you must assign
those inputs with the "Assigning the Component Video Inputs" procedure. See page 81
to do this.
