About video/HDMI OUT jacks

jacks on your TV.
When connecting the player to your TV using the HDMI cable, you can enjoy high quality
digital pictures and sound through the HDMI OUT jack.

• Plug in cables securely to prevent unwanted
noise.
• Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the
components to be connected.
• You cannot connect this player to a TV that does
not have a video input jack.
• Do not apply too much pressure on the connecting
cables. Pushing against the cabinet wall, etc., may
damage the cables or jacks.
To connect to a TV with DVI input
Use an HDMI-DVI converter cable (not
supplied). The DVI jack will not accept any
audio signals, so you have to use another
audio connection in addition to this
connection (page 19).
Furthermore, you cannot connect the HDMI
OUT jack to DVI jacks that are not HDCP
compliant (e.g., DVI jacks on PC displays).
