Connecting to a TV
Step1 Check the type of video input on your TV.
To view 480p, 720p or 1080i output, use the HDMI OUTPUT jack or the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks to connect
to a TV. Some discs may require use of the HDMI OUTPUT jack for viewing of high resolution material.

*Why HDMI connection is most recommended?

HD DVD and DVD video disc creators have the option to include copy protection instructions in their discs that prohibit
the output of some standard video or high definition video (original 720p or 1080i or up-converted 480i or 480p) from
the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks. If such instructions are present in the disc you are playing, you must use the HDMI
OUTPUT jack to view the disc in a high definition format and the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks, if activated, will output
video only in 480i or 480p resolution.
Caution on connection
• Do not power this player using any power cord other than the one supplied with this player.
• Do not use the supplied power cord with any device other than this player.
Notes on connection
• When you connect the player to your TV, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from the wall outlet
before making any connections.
• Connect the player directly to your TV. If you connect the player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, video selector or AV
amplifier, the playback picture may be distorted due to copy protection.

The resolution on the HDMI output will be the same as the resolution output on the component video output. Thus,
because the HDMI output can change automatically to match the maximum available resolution of your display, if you
connect both the HDMI output and component output, the resolution on the component output will change if the HDMI
output Auto-adjusts.
After completing the connection, proceed to page 23 to make the setting.
Notes
• Refer to the owner’s manual for the TV to be connected to this player for more information concerning HDMI connections.
• When the HDMI connection is not verified, an error message appears on the front panel display. In this case, disconnect
the HDMI cable then connect it again, or turn off the connected HDMI device then turn it on.
• HDMI output is digital only, DVI analog is not supported.
• HDMI is an evolving technology, so it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with this player.
• To get the most possible benefit from Dolby Digital Plus, you should connect your HD DVD player to your AV receiver using
either its HDMI audio capable input. If your AV receiver has this type of input(s), make sure one of them is connected to
your HD DVD player and that the input is set to use audio from HDMI (and not the SPDIF coaxial or optical input). If your
AV receiver does not have an HDMI input, but it can decode DTS, then the next best choice is to use the SPDIF (coaxial or
optical) input on your AV receiver. While this connection does not have enough bandwidth to transport the full, high-quality
Dolby Digital Plus signal, it will support DTS – the highest bandwidth commonly available encoding method that does work
over SPDIF. If your receiver does not support DTS, you may be able to obtain a two channel digital by setting the player to
output PCM. If your receiver does not have either HDMI or an optical digital input, use the two channel analog outputs.
• If you use the SPDIF optical output or analog outputs to connect your audio system and have the “Digital Out HDMI”
( page 53) set to “Auto” or “PCM”, the audio output level from these jacks will be reduced when listening to a multi-
channel disc. To restore the audio output level, set “Digital Out HDMI” to “Downmixed PCM”.
