The signal from the source which is connected to the RGB/YPBPR IN connector is projected.

This terminal accepts input of RGB input signals from a personal computer and DTV Format signals (RGB, YPBPR) from a DVD or a digital broadcast. No monitor or projector can automatically decide whether a Component signal is the RGB-type or the YPBPR-type. So, you will have to select either RGB or YPBPR manually.

The signal from the source which is connected to the S-VIDEO IN connector or VIDEO IN connector is projected.

If cables are connected to both connectors, the S-VIDEO signal will be selected automatically. (The S-VIDEO signal has priority.)
