The present invention makes it possible to fix connector pins at low cost. Connector pins penetrate both a holding substrate and a main substrate. The connecter pins can be restrained from an outward radial direction by both wall surfaces of pin holes of the holding substrate, and wall surfaces of through-holes of the main substrate, thus improving upright-standability of the connector pins. The holding substrate is formed of a same raw substrate as the main substrate is formed of, and permanent resists which are laminated on the holding substrate, and ink used for silk screen printing to which the holding substrate is subjected, are made of a same material of the main substrate, so that fire resistance of the holding substrate and fire resistance of the main substrate are same. Therefore, if the main substrate clears a predetermined fire-resistance standard, the holding substrate also inevitably clears the predetermined fire-resistance standard.

DVD integrated CRT television and connector fixing structure

A ROMstores a plurality of volume set values and a plurality of level change rates corresponding to each other and an ICaccepts a volume set value specified by a user when carrying out volume setting. Moreover, it is decided whether a reproducing object is a CD or a DVD depending on a decision signal output from a loader sectionA level change rate corresponding to the volume set value is output to an ICif the reproducing object is the DVD, and the level change rate corresponding to the volume set value is adjusted at a predetermined adjusting rate and the level change rate thus adjusted is output to the ICif the reproducing object is the CD. The ICchanges the level of an analog signal indicative of a voice input from the loader sectionat the level change rate and outputs the signal to an amplifying circuit

Television apparatus

A video reproduction apparatus includes a video playerwhich reproduces a video signal, a V-chip signal for restricting a display of a specific image being added to the video signal; a video processing circuitwhich processes the video signal from the video player; a CRTwhich displays the video signal that is processed by the video processing circuit; a control sectionwhich reads out the V-chip signal and judges whether a screen is to be blocked or not; and a memorywhich stores a result of the judgment. When a mode is transferred to a special play mode, a judgment result which immediately precedes the mode transfer is read out from the memory. If the judgment result is that the blocking is to be blocked, the screen of the CRTis set to a blocked state.
