Connecting up 02 Using other types of video output This player has standard (composite), S-video and component video outputs, as well as an HDMI connector (for digital video/audio).The main difference between them is the quality of the picture. S-video delivers a better picture than standard composite video, while component video gives better picture quality still. The variety of outputs also gives you the flexibility of connecting your particular equipment using the best connection type available. HDMI provides highest quality digital video (and audio) using one simple digital connection, provided your monitor or display is also equipped with HDMI. See Connecting using HDMI on page 22 for more on this. • If you connect both S-video jacks, but one of the connected components is not S1/ S2 compatible, the automatic aspect ratio switching will not work with either connected component.
