Component Video inputs provide for the high- est possible color and picture resolution in

the playback of digital signal source material, such as with DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance signal (Y) con- nected and received separately, which allows for improved color bandwidth information (not possi- ble when using composite video or S-Video con- nections).

1 Connect the Component (Y, Pb, Pr) Video OUT jacks from the DVD player (or similar device) to the (Y, Pb, Pr) in(put) jacks on the TV. When using the Component Video Inputs, it is best not to connect a signal to the AV1 IN Video Jack.

2 Connect the red and white AUDIO CABLES to the Audio (left and right) output jacks on the rear of the accessory device to the Audio (L and R) AV1 IN Input Jacks on the TV.
