Video connections

You can connect VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video games, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. (You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or satellite company; the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner.) Audio must be provided by your own speakers, as the projector has no separate audio controls. If there is more than one output, select the highest quality one. DVI, Component video and RGB (M1, HD15) have the best quality, fol- lowed by S-video, and then composite video.
