• Only NTSC video is output when set to
progressive scan.
• This player is compatible with D1, D2,
D3 and D4 input jacks, however, when
connected to a D1 jack, only interlace
video is output.
• If you connect both one or both of the
S-video jacks, and the D video
connector, and one of the connected
components is not S1/S2 compatible,
the automatic aspect ratio switching will
not work with any of the connected
components.
Connecting for multichannel
surround sound
You can connect this player to your AV
receiver using the multichannel analog
outputs or one of the digital outputs.
In addition to these connections, you should
also connect the 2 channel analog outputs
for compatibility with all discs.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video
output to your AV receiver. You can use any
of the video outputs available on this player
(the illustration shows a standard (compos-
ite) connection).
Connecting using the
multichannel analog outputs
If your AV receiver has 5.1 channel analog
inputs, we recommend connecting this
player to it using the multichannel analog
outputs. Doing this will ensure that you can
enjoy all kinds of disc, including Dolby
Digital and DTS DVD-Video discs, as well as
high sampling rate and multichannel DVD-
Audio and (for DV-655A) SACD discs.
1 Connect the MULTICHANNEL AUDIO
outputs on this player to the multi-
channel audio inputs on your AV receiver.
It’s convenient to use three stereo audio
cables; one for the FRONT, one for the
SURROUND and one for the CENTER and
SUBWOOFER channels.
