Connecting the DPC-7.4 —Continued
This section explains how to connect the DPC-7.4 to your TV
or projector.
In this hookup example, the TV handles the audio and video.
If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, you’ll be
able to enjoy DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround
logo.
To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround),
you’ll need a compatible decoder (see page 18).
The DPC-7.4 has three types of video output: component
video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video
offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use
a commercially available component video cable to connect
the DPC-7.4’s COMPONENT video output to the compo-
nent video inputs on your TV. If your TV supports progres-
sive scanning, you must use component video in order to take
advantage of that feature.
S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video,
so if your TV supports it, use the supplied S-Video cable to
connect the DPC-7.4’s S VIDEO output to an S-Video input
on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite video
cable to connect the DPC-7.4’s VIDEO output to a composite
video input on your TV.
Notes
• Before making any connections, turn off the DPC-7.4 and
your TV and disconnect their power cords from the wall
outlets.
• Also refer to the connection information supplied with
your TV.
• Connect the DPC-7.4’s video outputs directly to your TV.
Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in between
your DPC-7.4 and TV. Doing so may result in picture dis-
tortion, because of the copy protection system used on
DVD-Videos.
• When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play DTS
CDs and don’t select DTS soundtracks on DVD-Videos.
Doing so will produce unpleasant digital noise, which may
damage your equipment.
• If your TV or projector has BNC component video inputs,
use a BNC component video cable to connect them to the
DPC-7.4’s BNC component video outputs.
