Video Components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding a DVD there are two types of
connections to make. Hook up your video signal with either component video, S-video, or composite video cords
(the quality descends in this order) but remember, the video component you are watching and your TV must be
hooked up with same type of video cord or you won't be able to see the picture. For the audio signal, order to use
Dolby Digital/DTS you must hook up a digital input. It is also a good idea to hook up your DVD components with
analog audio connections as well, since some DVDs may not have a digital audio track. To cover all possible laser
discs a DVD/LD player or LD player requires an analog connection and a digital connection (a coaxial or optical
shown at the very top of the first diagram below).
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC
wall outlet.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the video signal.

Connecting Your Equipment
If you hook up your DVD/LD
player using component video
connections be sure to select
component video output on
your DVD player as well. See
your DVD manual for details.
Front video connections are accessed via the
front panel input selector as “VIDEO.“
If your video components have S-video jacks,
you could use S-video cords (not supplied) to
connect them on the back of the receiver.
However, if you use S-video cords for your video hook
ups you must also hook up your TV with S-video
connections. Conversely, if you use regular composite
video cords for video hook ups, you should use them
for your TV as well.
