Connections15Option 1 Using HDMI CableIf your TV has an HDMI input, use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT jack on the DVD recorder to theHDMI IN jack on the television.The HDMI cable can transmit both video and audio signals at the same time. If you use an HDMI cableto connect to your TV, it is recommended that you remove all other audio/video connections (componentor composite cables) between the DVD recorder and your TV to enjoy better audio/video quality.However, if you wish to play back discs recorded in DTS format, you need to use an extra optical orcoaxial cable to connect the DVD recorder to your TV or to a stereo amplifi er/receiver.HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)The DVD recorder supports the HDCP technology, which is developed to prevent copying of the contenttransmitted via the HDMI cable. After all connections are made, the recorder will start checking whetherthe connecting TV (or other display device) is HDCP-compliant. If the verifi cation process fails, a pop-upwindow will appear. Press and ENTER to try again. Otherwise, disconnect the HDMI cable and useother types of video cable for connection. If you select ‘EXIT’ without disconnecting the cable, or if youdo not select any option in 10 seconds, the pop-up window will disappear. Next time when you try towatch HDCP-encrypted content, there will be no image shown on screen.After all connections are made, make sure related system settings are correct on the Setup menu.• Setup Video Input/Output HDMI Resolution: Select a resolution mode supported by your TV.• Setup Video Input/Output HDMI Output: Select what types of signal you wish to betransmitted via HDMI cable.
