Otto,

: With regard to the "RF Output" I mentioned in my earlier post, the manual for the laserdisc player states in bold letters "To Make Connection with a TV not having Video/Audio Input Connectors." Underneath that, the manual states "Use an optional RF Adaptor PV-RF15. (See the RF Adaptor operating instructions.) The playback audio is mono."

: Thus, based on my reading of the manual, the "RF DC Output Connector" is some cheesy way to hook up the audio directly to the TV. It is apparently not an AC-3 type connection.

It could also be an RF video connection, similar to the connections found on the back of VCRs for hooking them up to TVs. If that is the case, the audio would be mono. What type of connection is it, a RCA or a 75ohm antenna-type?

Either way, Ken is correct. No Dolby Digital I'm afraid.

Stuart.
