Connecting Up
Using other types of video
output
This player has standard (composite),
S-video and component video outputs. The
main difference between them is the quality
of the picture.
S-video delivers a better picture than
standard composite video, while component
video gives better picture quality still. The
variety of outputs also gives you the flexibility
of connecting your particular equipment
using the best connection type available.
Connecting using an S-video
output
You can use the S-video output instead of the
VIDEO OUT jack to connect this player to
your TV (or other equipment).
1
Use an S-video cable (not supplied)
to connect the S-VIDEO OUTPUT to an
S-video input on your TV, monitor or
AV receiver.
Line up the small triangle above the jack with
the same mark on the plug before plugging
in.

Connecting using the AV
connector output
If your TV has a SCART-type AV input, you
can use a SCART cable to connect this
player to your TV. This type of connection
carries both the sound and the picture, so
there's no need to connect up the AUDIO
OUT L/R and VIDEO OUT jacks.

of the higher quality settings. See page 51
for how to change the video output.
