Choose one of the three methods for connecting to a TV.

METHOD3 (supplied)

METHOD2

METHOD1

METHOD 1 : HDMI. (Best Quality)
Connect the HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT jack on the back of the Blu-ray Home Theater to the HDMI IN jack on your TV.
Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work. HDMI automatically within 10 seconds.
If an HDMI cable is connected from the player to a TV, the Blu-ray Home Theaters output is set to If you are using the Anynet + feature (see page 42) and Component and HDMI are both
connected, HDMI mode is automatically selected.
When you connect the player to the TV using the HDMI cable for the first time or to a new TV, the
HDMI output resolution will be automatically set to the highest provided by the TV.
If you connect a Samsung TV to the Blu-ray Home Theater using an HDMI cable, the player can

HDMI Auto Detection Function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable while power is on. For possible HDMI resolutions, see page 41.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector. Using HDMI, the Blu-ray Home Theater transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack. HDMI connection description HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data. - HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV. - f your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears on the I screen. Why does Samsung use HDMI? Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a BD/DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the Blu-ray Home Theater) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV. What is the HDCP? HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting BD/DVD content outputted via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made. What is Anynet+? Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TVs with the Anynet+ feature. - f your Samsung TV has an I logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function. -f you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on I automatically and switch to HDMI mode. - f you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will immediately turn on I and switch to HDMI mode.
