In this case do not forget to also connect the Audio out socket (AUDIO OUT) to the Audio in socket (AUDIO IN) on your TV set.
Connections and initial set up 5 - Composite Video Outputs (Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr) (YUV) Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr sockets deliver an optimum image quality due to the separation of the video signal into three separate components (comparable with RGB separation in a Scart-Peritel cable). RCA sockets and cables for Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr Video signals, also called Component. Note: the available video signal on these 3 sockets depends on the selection made at the rear (1H or 2H) of your player (page 16).
