Connections and initial set up
3 - Composite Video Outputs (Y, Pb, Pr) (YUV)
The Y, Pb, Pr sockets deliver an optimum image quality due to the
separation of the video signal into three separate components (comparable
with RGB separation in a Scart-Peritel cable).To obtain the best image quality
possible, use very high quality cables for connections.Your dealer can provide
YUV cables that are sold together and come in the standard colour codes
(red, green and blue) used for these types of sockets and cables.
Note: if you use the Composite sockets Y, Pb, Pr (also called YUV), you must configure
the output video signal so that these sockets deliver an YUV.With the main menu
displayed (STOP mode), press the ZOOM/VIDEO OUT key several times.The
output video signal then switches from RGB to YUV.The display then successively
indicates RGB, AUTO, 576p, 720p, 1080i, 1h YUV.
Caution: do not forget to also connect the audio cables, because Component cables
only transmit images, and not sound.
4 - Audio - Video Output
Audio outputs (OUTPUT L, R), Composite Video Out socket
(CVBS) (COMPOSITE VIDEO OUTPUT)
The analog sound and the composite images (CVBS) from a disc being read
are permanently available at the two audio sockets,L and R, of your DVD
recorder.
5 - Coaxial Audio Output (digital sound)
The digital sound of a DVD Video disk when played is permanently available
on the coaxial socket of your player.Use this socket by connecting it to a
decoder or Dolby Digital amplifier or DTS.
6 - Digital Audio Video outputs
The HDMI socket permanently delivers very high quality digital sound and
pictures.This connection is strongly recommended with a digital television
which is fitted with the same socket and is compatible.
HDMI connection, image adjustment
If no image comes up on your TV screen and you're sure its set to HDMI (via
the on-screen menu or other means),try the following resolution adjustment:
- In STOP mode (with no disc in the appliance), press the ZOOM/VIDEO
OUT button on the remote control several times to adjust the resolution of
the HDMI OUT socket output signals to
576p, 720p, 1080i or AUTO.These
changes are displayed on your recorder’s read-out.
Note: for an S-video or normal video connection (yellow socket), leave the selector set
to RGB.
HDMI connection, sound adjustment
The sound available from the HDMI OUT output socket can be adjusted in
the Digital Audio Out menu (Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG).

Other Audio - Video connections
If there is no Peritel-Scart socket available on the television, check to see if there are any other
Video sockets (Components, S-Video or Composite) to connect your player by using the
corresponding sockets. In this case, do not forget to also connect the player’s Audio outputs
(AUDIO OUT) to the Audio input sockets (AUDIO IN) on your television.
