Using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

The COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals provides a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. These terminals can be used for either interlaced or progressive output. Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.

To enjoy progressive video

Connect to a progressive output compatible television.

1 Set “Video Output” to “Off” (page 30, “HDMI” tab).

2 Set “Video Output Mode” to “480p” or “576p”, and then follow the instructions on the menu screen (page 25, Picture Menu).
