Use commercially available coaxial cables. Amplifier (and Video monitor) with component input is required. Observe the color of each terminal when connecting. If your amplifier does not have component output terminals, connecting this unit’s component output directly to your video monitor’s component input can reproduce better video image. Note • Do not connect this unit’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals to component video input terminals special for HD (HighDefinition) TV. ■ S-Video terminal <B> S (separate) video connection achieves a clearer picture than composite video connection by separating color and luminance when transmitting signals.

They are refered as ‘chapters’ and numbered in sequence. You can use them to search the desired scene on a movie, etc. A basic digital audio format used in CDs. It is based on Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), an analog-to-digital conversion technology. No compression is applied to the data. Tunes (or pictures) recorded on a CD or Video CD are refered as ‘tracks’. Tracks are numbered in sequence as track 1, track 2, etc. They are useful for quick search for the desired tune (or picture). ■ Dolby Digital There are two types of MPEG (Moving Picture Expert Group) audio format.
