Digital Connection to an MD to Record a CD
Some Audio CDs have a short silent section between musical tracks. When sound from discs such as these is digitally
recorded by connecting the Player directly to a digital recorder (such as an MD recorder), the music may be recorded continu-
ously and track numbers may be lost.
C C Digital Connection to Audio Equipment or MD Recorder without a Dolby Digital Decoder
• Audio CD
Audio CDs can be transferred digitally to other equipment such as an MD recorder, play the disc as you would normally with
the audio mode set to "L+R" and use the connection shown above. Audio CDs recorded in the DTS format cannot be trans-
ferred digitally or via analogue.
• DVD
DVDs recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround sound, DTS or MPEG Audio cannot be connected digitally to external
recording equipment such as an MD recorder.
The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD
recorder.
It may be possible to record "DOLBY DIGITAL" or MPEG Audio via a digital connection if the DVD player output is set to
"DPCM" (see page 19 "Audio Settings"). Analogue recording is possible but not for DTS recorded audio.
Playing Dolby Digital (5.1 channel), DTS or MPEG audio
Connecting an amplifier with a Dolby Digital/ DTS/ MPEG Audio digital surround processor to your player's coaxial digital jack
provides richer and more powerful audio play.

NOTES:
• This connection is not possible if the processor or amplifier to which you want to connect does not have an optical/
coaxial digital input jack.
• ANALOG AUDIO OUT and AV (TV) of the DVD player are not available on the DTS audio.
HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS
If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV's 75-
ohm coaxial antenna terminal using a commercially available Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator. Connect the audio and
video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of
the RF Modulator (usually marked "TO TV") to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction sup-
plied with the RF Modulator for more details.
If your TV's 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable
from your TV's antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked
"ANT IN"), then connect the RF modulator to your TV's antenna terminal as described above.
NOTE:
• The picture quality from DVDs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV's antenna terminal through
an RF Modulator.
