DIGITAL OUT Jacks Use either an optical or coaxial digital cable (commercially available) to connect to an AV amplifier with a built-in decoder (AV control center). 2. AUDIO OUT Jacks Connect to the Audio input jacks of A/V-compatible TV or wide screen TV, Stereo system. 3. HDMI OUT Jack Use an HDMI connection cable (commercially available) to connect to a display with an HDMI compatible port. 4. VIDEO OUT Jack Use a video cable to connect one of the jacks to Video input on your A/V-compatible TV, wide screen TV, or Stereo system. 5. COMPONENT VIDEO OUT Jacks Use a Component Video cable (commercially available) to connect these jacks if you have a TV with Component Video in jacks. These jacks provide CB/PB, CR/PR and Y video. Along with S-Video, Component Video provides the best quality picture. 6. S-VIDEO OUT Jack Use the S-Video cable (commercially available) to connect this jack to the S-Video jack on your A/V-compatible TV or wide screen TV for a higher quality picture. 7. REMOTE CONTROL IN/OUT Jacks Connecting the DENON Satellite Remote Control to these jacks enables you to operate more than one DENON components with one remote control. 8. CONTROL CONNECTOR (RS-232C) This is a terminal for future system expansion. 9. 5.1ch AUDIO OUT Jacks Use speaker cables (commercially available) to connect these jacks to the 5.1 ch Audio input jacks of your AV amplifier with 5.1-channel input terminals. When using the DENON Satellite Remote Control, 1. Connect the DENON Satellite Remote Control to the REMOTE CONTROL IN jack of this player. This allows you to operate this player with the Satellite Remote Control. 2. Connect another DENON component to the REMOTE CONTROL OUT jack of this player. This allows you to operate this player and the connected component with the same Satellite Remote Control. NOTE: · When there is video output from the HDMI OUT jack, no signal is output from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Selecting Progressive Scan (525p/480p or Interlaced 525i/480i) Playback ¡If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (525p/480p), connect the TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks of the DVD player and set PROGRESSIVE to ON in the display setting. Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode. Refer to page 25 for instructions on changing the display setting. P.SCAN will appear on the display of the unit. ¡If your TV is not compatible with progressive scanning, set PROGRESSIVE to OFF (refer to page 25). Make sure that P.SCAN on the display of the unit lights off. ¡Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TV or monitor is the BNC type. ¡Progressive video signal will not be output from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT during the HDMI output mode. What is Progressive Scanning? ¡Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan system provides less flickering and images in higher resolution than that of traditional (525i/480i) television signals. The DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) system of this DVD player produces smooth and natural video images, even if really dynamic, by eliminating the jagged edges. *"DCDi" is a trademark of Faroudja, a division of Genesis Microchip Inc.

HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV's 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not included. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked "TO TV") to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details. If your TV's 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV's antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked "ANT IN"), then connect the RF modulator to your TV's antenna terminal as described above.
