Connecting to the TV and receiver

The media center supports multiple types of audio and video connec- tions. It is recommended that you use the highest-quality connection supported by both the TV or audio receiver and the media center.

!Do not plug the media center into power yet.

1.Place the media center in a well-ventilated open area near the TV and audio receiver (if used). Connect the incoming coaxial cable to the media center.

2.Install one of the following video connections and refer to figure 51 for HDTVs or figure 52 for standard TVs on page 66:

a.For HD and supported TVs, connect a DVI-D cable between the media center and the HDTV.

If a DVI-D cable or an HDMI to DVI conversion cable is used along with an intermediate device such as an audio/video receiver, video might not be passed through the intermediate device to the TV. If this happens, connect the media center directly to the TV.

b.If a DVI-D connection is unavailable, connect component (YPbPr) cables for HDTV.

c.For televisions where DVI-D or component is not an option, connect an S-Video cable, or go to option d.

d.When a, b, or c is unavailable, use a composite video cable connected to the V port.
