OPTICAL
- connect an optical cable (SPDIF) to the OPTICAL jack on the Digital Media Recorder and Digital Audio
Optical Input jack on your receiver.
COAXIAL
- connect a digital coaxial cable to this jack and to the Digital Audio Coaxial Input jack on your
receiver. The cable is not a black coaxial cable, but an RCA-type cable.
PROG. SCAN switch
– If you’ve connected your Digital Media Recorder to a TV that uses progressive scanning to
display the image via the Y, Pb, Pr jacks, turn the switch to the “on” position for progressive scan playback of
DVD discs. Typically, only some High Definition Televisions and high-end multimedia monitors use progressive
scanning. Leave the switch in the OFF positoin for S-VIDEO or COMPOSITE VIDEO connections.
Note: If you turn the PROG SCAN switch on, and your TV isn’t capable of progressive scanning you won’t see a
clear picture on the TV screen. Additionally, when playing DVDs you won’t see any picture— press STOP (the main
menu appears) and turn the PROG SCAN switch to the OFF position. Try playing the disc again.
