7.2About connecting

Learn here how to make the best connection for your device.

Six connections are ready to use at the back of the TV - EXT1, EXT2, EXT3, HDMI1 and HDMI2. Connect your device with the highest possible quality connection. Look for the highest quality connection on your device. Use that connection to your TV.

Connection set up

When connecting is done the TV needs to know what connections you made, which device is connected to which connector. Use the TV menu to do this. See section 7.4 Connection set up.

7.2.1HDMI - Highest quality ★★★★★

A HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One cable combines video and audio signals. Use HDMI for HD (High Definition) TV signals. A device connected with HDMI to the TV can only send out audio and video signals to your TV. The device cannot receive or record audio and video from your TV.

HDMI cable (max. 5m)

àTip

Use a HDMI / DVI adaptor in case your device has only a DVI connection. An extra audio cable is needed to complete this connection.

rNote

HDMI supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that comes with HD content (DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc).

7.2.2YPbPr - Higher quality ★★★★

Use the Component Video YPbPr connections together with the Audio L/R mini jack. Match the cable colours when you connect.

YPbPr can handle HD TV signals.
