Connecting a Standard DVD Player

Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV

Component video inputs allow the highest pos- sible color and picture resolution in the play-

back of digital signals, such as those of DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance (Y) signal are connected and received separately. The result is better color bandwidth information than is possible with com- posite video (labeled VIDEO on your TV’s jack panel) or S-Video connections.

To make the connections shown in this example, you will need:

•three cables for video connections (standard RCA-type phono plugs)

•two cables for audio connections (standard RCA-type phono plugs).

1 Connect the YPbPr (component) VIDEO OUT jacks from the DVD play- er to the INPUT-AV 1 YPbPr (compo- nent video) jacks on the back of the TV. NOTE: The INPUT-AV 1 YPbPr jacks will accept 480i (interlaced) output sig- nals only. The connection example on this page assumes the use of a DVD player with interlaced output. Some DVD play- ers, however, have YPbPr outputs that can be switched between interlaced and pro- gressive scan. If you are attempting to use a DVD player with progressive-scan

(480p output) capability to make the con- nection shown in this example, you must be sure to switch the DVD player to inter- laced. If necessary, refer to the DVD play- er’s directions-for-use manual for help. If you want to use the DVD player in pro- gressive-scan mode, you must use the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks (see page 13).

2 Connect the AUDIO OUT L(eft) and R(ight) jacks from the DVD player to the INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks on the back of the TV.

3 Press the AV button on the remote con- trol as many times as necessary to select the CVI (component video input) source on the TV.

4 Turn the DVD player on and press PLAY to view the DVD program on the TV.

HELPFUL HINTS

•To simplify making connections, the plugs on audio and video cables are often color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the plugs.

•The names for the component video jacks may differ depending on the DVD player or accessory digital source equipment used. For example, besides YPbPr, you may see R-Y/B-Y/Y; or CrCbY. Although abbrevia- tions and terms may vary, the letters B and R stand for the blue and red color component signals, respectively, and Y indicates the lumi- nance signal. If necessary, refer to the direc- tions-for-use manual for your DVD or digital accessory for more information.

•You can also connect a satellite receiver to the TV in a manner similar to the example shown on this page. If you connect a satellite receiver to the TV, you will need to use the receiver’s channel-memorization system to store chan- nels in the receiver’s memory.

•If you experience difficulties receiving sound with a DVD disc, check the sound settings through the DVD disc’s menu.

•The CVI source cannot be displayed in the PIP window. See page 7 in the Quick Use and Setup Guide for more on the PIP feature.

To prevent uneven picture-tube aging, do not leave nonmoving images or picture borders on the screen for an extended period. See page 60.
