6. HDMI/DVI AUDIO
Use these analog audio inputs when connecting DVI video devices to the TV’s HDMI jacks. Unlike HDMI, DVI does not carry audio information on the same cable. For analog audio from a personal computer, use the PC- DVI AUDIO jacks instead.

9. IEEE 1394/DTVLINK™
These jacks allow the TV to connect to external IEEE 1394 digital products by means of a single cable. See chapter 6, “NetCommand Operations” for detailed information regarding IEEE 1394 connections and recording.
10. MONITOR OUT
Use these composite video and left/right audio jacks to send analog video and audio signals to an external recording device such as a VCR. To make recordings from this output, the TV must be in normal
•You can watch another device while recording, but not another channel.
•From this output you can record audio and video signals from ANT 1, ANT 2, INPUT
•Digital signals from ANT 1, ANT 2, and IEEE 1394 devices are converted to analog video and audio signals.
•Some signals cannot be recorded because of
11.AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT
AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT jacks send analog audio of the program currently shown on the screen to an A/V sur- round sound receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital channels, FireWire® (IEEE 1394/DTVLink) devices and HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If using an analog A/V receiver or stereo system, this is the only audio connection needed between it and the TV.
12. DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio from analog channels and devices is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this is the only audio connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.
13. IR Emitter NetCommand®
IR Emitters connected to this jack are used by the TV’s NetCommand system to control external IR remote con- trolled analog devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite receivers and audio receivers. This system also coordinates with the TV Guide On Screen® system to control cable boxes and to activate the record feature of your VCR.
