Connecting Video source devices
This section describes how to connect the projector to Video source devices using video cables. Video cable connections are recommended for Video presentations.
You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the following output sockets:
•Component Video
•
•Video (composite)
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:
Best video quality
The best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused with composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite) Video.
See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 18 for how to connect the projector to a component video device.

Least video quality
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods described here.
See "Connecting a composite Video source device" on page 20 for how to connect the projector to a composite Video device.
