5.INPUT 1, 2 (Audio and Video)

Input 1 and 2 can be used to connect a VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver, or other A/V device to the TV. Each TV INPUT group consists of jacks for composite video, S-Video, and analog stereo audio. Note that when you connect to the S-video jack, the composite video jack is auto- matically disabled. INPUT 3 is a third set of composite video and stereo audio jacks located on the side of the TV for convenience.

6. HDMI™ Inputs

The HDMI 1.3 (High Definition Multimedia Interface) sup- ports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio format.

Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com- pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats.

Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables to connect HDMI 1.3 source devices. High-speed cat- egory 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.

These inputs can also accept digital DVI video signals. To connect a DVI source, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to PC/DVI AUDIO INPUT on the back of the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your PC or DVI device.

The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and HDMI computer video signals. See chapter 2, “TV Setup” and Appendix A for additional information on PC compatibility.

These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

These inputs are certified for proper interop- erability with other products certified by Simplay™.

HDMI Cable Categories

HDMI cables are available as Category 1 and Category 2 versions.

•Category 2 Cables. Newer, HDMI 1.3-com- pliant DVD players, video games, and set-top boxes require Category 2 cables. Use cat- egory 2 cables for these high-speed HD signals carrying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep Color). Category 2 cables are also suitable for standard HDTV signals.

•Category 1 Cables. Unmarked cables are category 1 cables and are suitable for standard HDTV signals.

7.DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio from analog channels and devices is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this is the only audio connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.

8. IR Emitter NetCommand®

(LT-40134, LT-46144, and LT-52144 models only)

IR Emitters connected to this jack are used by the TV’s NetCommand system to control external IR remote controlled analog devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite receivers and audio receivers.
