Connecting with video equipment

You can connect the projector to any type of video equipment, such as a VCR, DVD player, digital tuner, cable or satellite decoder, video game console or digital camera. You can also connect it to a desktop or laptop PC or Apple Macintosh system. You need only connect the projector to a source device using just one of the 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:
