2.1 Which Video Connection Should I Use?

The VIZIO VO22L HDTV10A has six different ways to connect your video equipment from a basic connection to the most advanced for digital displays.

				HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) - It is the first
Best				and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital
		White		audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between
(digital)				any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player,
				or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as
				a digital television (DTV), over a single cable.
Best				DTV Coaxial RF. When used for MPEG2 encoded bit
(digital)

Good				TV Coaxial RF. This is the connection for standard NTSC
(analog)				TV using antenna or cable.
Best				RGB PC (VGA) – This video input has separate red, green
		Blue		and blue color components.	The signal carries horizontal
(analog)				and vertical sync information on the green signal. This is
				most commonly used for PC input.
				Component - The video signal is separated into three
Better				signals, one containing the black-and-white information and
		Green		the other two containing	the color information. This
(analog)				enhancement over S-Video takes advantage of the superior
				picture provided by progressive scan DVD players and
				HDTV formats.
				S-Video (AV) - The video signal is separated into two
				signals, one containing the black-and-white information and
		Yellow		the other containing the color information. Separating the
Good				color in this way avoids ‘cross color’ effects where closely
		and		spaced black and white lines are erroneously displayed in
(analog)
		Red		color. It also enables text to be displayed more sharply.
				Composite (AV) - The complete video signal is carried
				through this single pin connector. This is the most
				commonly used video connection.
