the TV audio and video jacks are not used.
If your TV supports multiple sets of video and audio inputs (such as
VID1, VID2, etc.) see “Connecting a DCT5100 to an A/V Receiver, TV,
and Stereo VCR”. When you have completed those connections, refer to
the diagram illustrated here to connect your DVD to your TV.

TV VIDEO input must be used.
