SETUP AND CONNECTIONS  13
Setup and Connections
Important Notes on SCART and RGB 
format:
■ Your DVD is equipped with a SCART connec-
tor for direct connection to the TV.
■ The SCART connector provides the video 
signal as well as audio (stereo L/R) signals.
■ The SCART connector for the TV provides the
composite video signal or the direct RGB
signal, delivering the best video performance
possible, selectable in the Setup menu.
To view RGB video on your TV, the RGB
compatible SCART connector on the TV must
be used and the DVD´s TV SCART connector
must be set to ”RGB”.
Note that with RGB video the color intensity
cannot be adjusted with most TVs.
■ When the RGB video signal is used, DVD´s
recorded with the NTSC format (with regional
code 0 or 2) can be viewed even on non-
NTSC compatible TVs.
Component Video Connection
If the video display has component video inputs,
connect the Component Video Outputs on the
DVD to the corresponding input jacks on your
television. If you are using a progressive scan
television or projector, you must also change the
Scan Type in the DVD player's Video Set-Up
Menu from ”Interlaced” to ”Progressive”.
Important note on DVD-Audio and SCART:
The full DVD-Audio output is only available on
the 6 Ch Direct Output. If the player is connect-
ed to a TV or monitor only using a SCART con-
nection (and not to a 6 Ch Direct Input on an
A/V Receiver), only the Front Left (FL) and Front
Right (FR) will be heard. In this case the Center
and Surround speakers need to be set to NONE
in the AUDIO ADJUSTMENT MENU on page 20.
Connecting to a TV or monitor with SCART or Component connectors and to an A/V Receiver with 
6 Ch Direct Input for DVD-Audio (recommended).
