Sockets and cables
There are several ways in which you can incorporate your DVD player into an Audio-Video
system.The simplest of these is described on page 3. This uses a Scart Peritel cable that combines
an Audio analog connection for sound and a video connection for the RGB signal image.This
connection ensures the optimum image quality. If you are unable to use the Scart Peritel socket,
the explanations on this page should enable you to choose the connection best suited to the
sockets and appliances you have. Sound and image quality depend to a large extent on the types
of connections used.
Audio sockets and cables (for sound)
1 -
Audio Out L / R
Analogue sound of a disc being played is permanently available on the two L
and R sockets on your player. If you do not use the recommended Scart
Peritel connection to your TV set (page 3, paragraph 1) you must, in addition
to the CVBS video connection described on page 4, connect the L and R
audio out sockets on your DVD player to the L and R audio in sockets on
your TV set (or amplifier).
Note: audio sockets and cables are usually identified by a colour code (red for the left
channel and white for the right channel).
2 -
Coaxial out socket
The digital sound of a disc being played is permanently available on the
coaxial socket on your player. Use this socket by connecting it to a decoder
or a Dolby Digital or DTS amplifier. Some of these appliances are equipped
with a coaxial In socket (COAXIAL) or an optical In socket (OPTICAL).This
connection is recommended for transmitting digital sound to an amplifier.

Composite Video Out socket (
CVBS
)
The yellow video socket is also called composite video, or CVBS.The image
quality delivered by the video socket is the least good of all video
connections. Only use this socket if the Scart Peritel socket is already in use.
