Connections

This chapter describes different possibilities of connecting the media player to AV
equipment.
Depending on the model and the design of a TV/monitor/projector, after connecting it using
one of the provided schemes and plugging in the power, the player initialization may take up to
10 sec. If after this time there is no picture (a "DUNE" logo) on the screen, then it is a problem
with the cable connection or the TV/monitor/projector. Please check the "Troubleshooting" sec-
tion in such case.
If, after the initial screen (a "DUNE" logo) disappears, there is no other picture on the screen
in 10 sec and more, then it is most likely a problem of incorrect video mode set in the player.
Please address the "Quick Setting of Video Output Mode" section below in such case.
Connecting a TV/Monitor/Projector with
HDMI/DVI Input
Since the player is designed first of all for playback of high definition (HD) video (up to
1080p), the best way of signal transmission from the player to a TV/monitor/projector is
the HDMI interface. In this case, video and audio streams are transmitted in digital form,
without loss, delivering excellent picture and sound.
If your TV/monitor/projector has no HDMI port but is equipped with the DVI one, you can use
an HDMI-DVI adapter (to be connected to HDMI-HDMI cable) or HDMI-DVI cable (no adapter
needed). In this case, transmission of audio stream via HDMI is not supported, so one of the
analog or digital audio outputs has to be used.
1. Make sure that the player and the TV/monitor/projector is switched off. Do not switch them on
until the connection procedure is finished.
2. Connect the HDMI/DVI cable and (if needed) the HDMI-DVI adapter.
3. Using RC/buttons of the TV/monitor/projector, select the required input port and (for display
mode. For further instructions please refer to the manual of your displaying equipment.
4. Power on the devices. Wait until the initial screen (a "DUNE" logo) is shown.
