The sockets and their uses
There are several ways in which you can incorporate your DVD player into an Audio-Video
system.This depends on the sockets and other appliances you have. Sound and image quality
depend to a large extent on the types of connections used.
Familiarise yourself with the characteristics of the different sockets on your recorder. If you
cannot use Scart-Peritel sockets, the following explanations pages should enable to you to choose
the method of connection best suited to the sockets and appliances you have.

Connections and initial set up
1 - SCART OUT (TV) (Audio-Video outputs)
This socket allows you to transfer Audio and Video (sound and images) from
your DVD recorder to a television set or other device (flat screen,audio-video
amplifier, etc.) that is fitted with the same type of socket.This transfer is
performed in RGB which ensures good image quality.
Caution: If a YUV or PS video signal mode is selected, there will be no output signal
on the SCART OUT (TV) socket, and therefore no image.To get an image (RGB video
signal) on this socket, press the ZOOM/VIDEO OUT key one or more times on
the remote control to display RGB (576P 720P 1080I 1H YUV RGB
AUTO 576P…).The main menu must appear on the television screen (make sure
that it is not switched off). (Also see page 5 of the manual)
2 - SCART IN (VCR/DECODER)
This socket allows to enter Audio Video (sound and images) from another device
(video recorder or decoder) fitted with the same type of socket.
Note: the Péritel socket is also known by the name of Péritélévision or Scart.The
latter is an abbreviation of « Syndicat des Constructeurs d’Appareils Radioélectriques
et de Télévision ».
