When this connection is utilized with today's HD-compatible sets, typical NTSC artifacts-like video noise, dot crawl, and flicker-are virtually eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed picture with unequaled color purity.
• Coaxial Digital Audio Output
  
  • Benefit: Sends the audio signal to an audio/video receiver in its digital form allowing access to the Dolby Digital® /DTS® track encoded on the DVD disc.
• Front Panel A/V & S-Video
  
  • Benefit: There are composite audio & video inputs, as well as RCA L/R inputs on the front panel of the unit for easy camcorder dubbing. As well, an S-Video input is also available on the front panel for interfacing components with this available video output

Jackpacks

• ColorStream Pro® Component Video Output
  ColorStream Pro® progressive scan provides a non-interlaced component video DVD/TV connection that allows DVD-Video to reach its maximum picture quality potential. Every DVD-Video disc is mastered in MPEG-2 progressive scan (480P). By preserving DVD's progressive scan image, the ColorStream PRO connection provides a new dimension in total picture quality, delivering a more film-like, three-dimensional image. The progressive scan image is flicker-free, with virtually no visible NTSC line structure or motion artifacts, and offers better resolution than standard interlaced images.
  
  • Benefit: These outputs allow the video signal to be sent from the DVD player to a component video equipped interlaced or progressive scan TV. When this connection is utilized with today's HD-compatible sets, typical NTSC artifacts-like video noise, dot crawl, and flicker-are virtually eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed picture with unequaled color purity.
• Coaxial Digital Audio Output
• Front Panel A/V & S-Video
• Y, Pr, Pb
  Refers to the color video output jacks on DVD players with component video. Y is the Luminance, which is the brightness and gray scale portion of the signal. Pr is the red portion of the signal minus the luminance element. Pb is the blue potion of the signal minus the luminance. These require less bandwidth than the R,G, B signals.
  
  • Benefit: Requires less processing and combining, produces better image quality, and reduces chance of noise in the signal compared to traditional R, G, B signals.
• S-Video
• RCA Video (1)
• RF Input - Rear (1)
