Using additional video cables

NOTE: A component video output option is for select models only.

If you plan to connect your TV to the PC, you may need additional cables that are not included with your PC. HP Media Center PC models have different video output options, depending on your PC model. The options are: S-video, composite video, component, VGA, and DVI. For best video quality use the DVI, then VGA, then component option (only available on a digital TV). The next best option is S-video, followed by composite video. Check the documentation that came with your PC and TV to determine which cables you need.

NOTE: HP does not recommend video cable lengths over 1.5 meters (4.9 feet).

Using additional sound cables

If you plan to connect the PC audio to an amplifier or a TV, you may need additional sound cables that are not included with your PC. Your PC is able to output sound in several modes. Your PC has 3.5-mm female stereo headphone jacks for most outputs. Many amplifiers have RCA inputs. You need one 3.5-mm male to RCA stereo cable for stereo sound. You need three 3.5-mm male to RCA cables for 5.1 surround sound. Check the documentation that came with your audio equipment for the best input method.

Using a video game console device

If you are using a video game console device, such as a Microsoft Xbox, Sony PlayStation 2, or Nintendo GameCube, HP recommends that you connect it directly to your display device using video signal- switching hardware (not included) or connect it to a separate TV rather than connecting it directly to the PC.

Using Media Center Setup Wizard for Optional Setup of Your TV Display

If your TV connects to the system using a composite or S-video connection, the Media Center setup wizard cannot make automatic adjustment of settings for your TV display.

This automatic adjustment is available during the Optional Setup, within the option Optimize how Media Center looks on your display. Instead of using the wizard for automatic adjustment, set the TV display by using the Windows Desktop Properties.

The following procedure describes what to do within the Media Center setup wizard and how to use the Windows Desktop Properties to adjust settings for your TV display:

1During the Media Center setup wizard, at the Optional Setup, after you select Optimize how Media Center looks on your display, select the display type for Identify Your Display Type, and then select the Connection Type for your TV display by proceeding as described below:

If you choose the option Composite or S-video, click Next, and then continue with step 2 that follows.

If you choose the options DVI or VGA or Component (YPbPr), you do not need to continue with this procedure. Continue using the wizard so the wizard can adjust your TV display.

2On the next screen, select Keep my current settings and continue, and then click Next. Do not select the option Preview Automatic Adjustment.

IMPORTANT: If you choose the option Preview Automatic Adjustment, the screen may appear black or seem to halt for approximately 20 seconds. Wait until the wizard screen reappears, choose Do not adjust any settings, click Next, and then continue with the next step in this procedure.
