DVD Player
The Cinema Rhapsody is preprogrammed to permit you to easily
connect a DVD player. You will need to make only one audio con-
nection to play:
Dolby Digital AC-3 DVDs and Stereo CDs.
All connections should use a 75 Ohm coaxial cable. If none are
available, standard RCA video interconnects will work. In the event
that your DVD player does not have a digital PCM/AC-3 coax (RCA
Type) output, but rather only has an optical TOS-Link output for PCM/
AC-3 playback, you will need to customize the setup using the steps
found at the bottom of the following page.
Connection 1 - DVD Player’s Digital PCM/AC-3 Audio Output - You
will need to connect the DVD player’s digital PCM/AC-3 audio out-
put (coax RCA type) to the Cinema Rhapsody’s Digital Audio Input
#3.
Connection 2 - DVD Player’s Video Output - You will need to con-
nect the DVD player’s video output (Composite Video) to the Cin-
ema Rhapsody’s #3 Video Input.
Connection 3 (Optional) - DVD Player’s S-Video Output - You may
also choose to connect the S-Video (Super Video) output of the DVD
player to the Cinema Rhapsody’s #3 S-Video Input. This will re-
quire a special super video cable. Please note, if your projector or
TV does not have a super video input, you will not need to make this
connection as the Cinema Rhapsody does not cross convert S-Video
to Composite Video.
If your DVD player does not have an RCA Type Digital Audio PCM/
AC-3 Coax output but rather has only an Optical Digital PCM/AC-3
output, you will need to change the programming for this input. These
steps are discussed at the bottom of the following page. If you are
going to connect the DVD player using an optical input , you should
proceed to connect the DVD’s optical output to the Cinema
Rhapsody’s #3 Optical Input. Then proceed with the instructions on
the following page.
The “Out Of The Box” setup
presumes that your DVD
player has the following
outputs:
Digital Audio PCM/AC-3
Coax (RCA) Type Output
Video Output
(Composite RCA Type)
Your DVD Player may also
include a super video output.
Please note, the Cinema
Rhapsody does not cross mix
video signals. As such, if you
wish to use a component’s S-
Video output, you will need to
connect an S-Video cable
from the Cinema Rhapsody to
the TV or Projector.
Use the diagram on the
following page to make your
DVD player connections. ADA
suggests using a quality 75
Ω
Coaxial cable. In the event
that none are available, you
can use standard RCA
interconnects.
