Choosing the TV connection type

From the video input jacks on the back of your TV, choose the type that provides the highest level of video image quality. Place a check mark next to the type of video input connection you plan to use.

If you chose Component, go to page 8.

If you chose S-Video, go to page 10.

If you chose Composite, go to page 12.
