video connections
To view the pictures from Solo Movie 2.1 you need to
connect one of its video outputs to your display device
(TV, monitor, projector, etc.).
Solo Movie 2.1 has three of the four video output
options described below. All versions of Solo Movie 2.1
have HDMI and Composite outputs. In addition, and
depending on the shipping region, your unit will have
either SCART or Component video connectors, to
match the connections typically used in your region. You
need only use one type of video connection from those
available; choose a type that your display device supports.
If your display device does not support any of the above
connection types, you may need to update your display
to use it with Solo Movie 2.1; in this case, please contact
your dealer for further assistance.
Video inputs
You can use other video equipment (satellite/cable
receivers, games consoles, etc.) with Solo Movie 2.1.
Connect these to the audio and video inputs of Solo
Movie 2.1. You can use any of the video inputs provided,
but the same type of connector should also be used to
connect Solo Movie 2.1 to the display device.
Solo Movie 2.1 does not convert video formats, so
if a video source is connected (for example) via the
COMPOSITE VIDEO SAT input, it is only available at the
COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT socket.
HDMI digital video
The HDMI connector offers uncompressed digital video
and audio transmission between Solo Movie 2.1 and the
display device, and provides the highest quality video
output. Generally, it is also the easiest connection type to
configure.
To use this video connection,
you’ll need a HDMI or HDMI/DVI
cable between Solo Movie 2.1
and your display device. Arcam
recommends that you use high
quality HDMI cables for the best
results.
In the Video set-up menu (see
page 18), ‘Video Resolution’
should be set to ‘Auto’. The unit will configure its video
output automatically to match the capabilities of the
attached HDMI device.
Component video
Use three 75Ω phono cables to
connect the Component Y, Pb, Pr
outputs of Solo Movie 2.1 to the Y,
Pb, Pr inputs of the display device.
Ensure that the cables are suitable
for video use and that they are
approximately the same length.
If your television is capable of accepting a progressively
scanned (de-interlaced) video signal, you may wish to
use the progressive video output from Solo Movie 2.1
for best results. If you are unsure whether your display
device can accept progressive video, please refer to its
instruction manual or consult your dealer.
Some component video interfaces are labelled differently
to the back panel of Solo Movie 2.1; check the table if the
component inputs of your display device are not labelled
‘Y, Pb, Pr’.
SCART output
The SCART connector is
common on European A/V
equipment and provides a
convenient connection method
between Solo Movie 2.1 and
display device, carrying both
video and stereo audio.
If you are using a SCART connection and you do not
wish to listen to the audio through your TV, turn the
volume down fully on your TV’s speakers, or to use the
MUTE control.
Note that the SCART output has a control signal that
switches your TV to its SCART input when Solo Movie
2.1 is turned on. It will also signal to wide-screen TVs the
correct aspect ratio (16:9 or 4:3), provided this feature is
supported by the TV.

Composite video
If your display device offers only a
composite input (sometimes labelled
CVBS or just ‘video’), connect this to
the COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT socket of
Solo Movie 2.1 using a 75Ω phono
cable suitable for video use. Note that
a composite video connection gives the lowest-quality
output; if your display device supports other video
connection types, we advise you use them instead.
Using two video connections
simultaneously
In some circumstances, it is possible to use two video
connections simultaneously (routing one connection to a
second room or display, for example). If you wish to do
this, please read these notes:
<
The Composite video and SCART outputs are
only active if HDMI is not connected (or if ‘HDMI
Resolution’ is set to ‘SD Progressive’ – see page
18). These two output types carry interlaced
output at all times.
<
The Component video output is only active if
HDMI is not connected (or if ‘HDMI Resolution’
is set to ‘SD Progressive’ – see page 18). It can be
set to carry either interlaced or progressive-scan
output.
<
The HDMI output is active only if a compatible
display is detected by the Solo Movie 2.1. It can be
set to carry either interlaced, progressive-scan or
high-definition output.
About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports
both video and audio on a single digital connection
for use with DVD players, digital TV, set-top boxes, and
other AV devices. HDMI was developed to combine
the technologies of High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP) and the Digital Visual Interface
(DVI) in one specification, with the addition of
transmission of digital audio information; HDCP is used
to protect digital content transmitted to DVI-compliant
displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard
or high-definition video and stereo audio. HDMI
features include uncompressed digital video, one
connector (instead of several cables and connectors),
and communication between the AV source and AV
receivers.
