U p

Important:

Before making or changing any rear panel connec

tions, make sure that all components are switched off and unplugged

from the wall outlet.

This player outputs video in a number of different ways. Choose the

one most suitable for your system using the guide below.

Connecting SCART and S-Video cables

SCART and S-Video cables will only plug in one way, so make sure the

plug is correctly lined up with the jack before inserting. Be sure to

fully insert for a good connection.

Note:

The

AVI (RGB)-TV

connector can output composite, S-

Video or RGB component video; the

AV2

SCART connector only

outputs composite video. If you connect just one TV use the

AVI

(RGB)-TV

connector. You can select the type of video output by

changing the

Video Out

setting in the

Setup Menu (page

94).

S-Video or composite video?

S-Video should give a better picture, so if you have an S-Video input,

use it. S-Video cables are available from any good audio/visual dealer.

Setting the TV System switch

Set the

system

switch to match the TV system in your country

or region. If you have a multi-system TV that can display both PAL

and NTSC signals, set this switch to

AUTO. This will allow you to

watch both PAL and NTSC Video CDs and DVD discs.

This system can convert NTSC to PAL, so setting this switch to

pal

will enable you to watch any PAL or NTSC disc.

This system can also convert PAL to NTSC, but only for Video CDs, so

setting this switch to

NTSC will limit you to NTSC DVD discs.

Setting the component video switch

You only need to set this switch if you ’re using an NTSC TV/

monitor connected via the component video outputs of this player.

This player can output NTSC video as a standard interlaced signal

(the

525i(480i)

setting), or as a non-interlaced, or progressive

scan signal (the

525p(480p)

setting). Generally, however, you

should leave it set to

MENU, which makes this setting switchable

from the on-screen Setup menu. Switch manually if you have chosen

a setting from the Setup menu that is incompatible with your

television/monitor and therefore can’t see any picture.
