5.INPUT 1, 2 (Audio and Video)

Input 1 and 2 can be used to connect a VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver, or other A/V device to the TV. Each TV INPUT group consists of jacks for composite video, S-Video, and analog stereo audio. Note that when you connect to the S-video jack, the composite video jack is auto- matically disabled. INPUT 3 is a third set of composite video and stereo audio jacks located on the front of the TV for convenience.

6. HDMI™ Inputs

The HDMI 1.3 (High Definition Multimedia Interface) sup- ports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio format.

Use the HDMI inputs to connect to EIA/CEA-861 HDMI compliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats.

Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables to connect HDMI 1.3 source devices. High-speed cat- egory 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.

These inputs can also accept digital DVI video inputs. To connect a DVI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to the PC/DVI AUDIO INPUT on the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device.

The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and HDMI computer video signals. See chapter 2, “TV Setup” and Appendix A for additional information on PC compatibility.

These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

These inputs are certified for proper interop- erability with other products certified by Simplay™.

HDMI Cable Categories

HDMI cables are available as Category 1 and Category 2 versions.

Category 2 Cables. Newer, HDMI 1.3-com- pliant DVD players, video games, and set-top boxes require Category 2 cables. Use cat- egory 2 cables for these high-speed HD signals carrying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep Color). Category 2 cables are also suitable for standard HDTV signals.

Category 1 Cables. Unmarked cables are category 1 cables and are suitable for standard HDTV signals.

7.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.

8. IR Emitter NetCommand®

Y series and 734 series models only

IR Emitters connected to this jack are used by the TV’s NetCommand system to control external IR remote controlled analog devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite receivers and audio receivers.

The Mitsubishi Electronics WD-65734 and WD-73734 are part of the renowned line of DLP (Digital Light Processing) televisions that have garnered a strong following among home theater enthusiasts. These models feature advanced technologies that deliver stunning image quality and an immersive viewing experience.

Both the WD-65734 and WD-73734 showcase Mitsubishi's exceptional commitment to high-definition viewing. With screen sizes of 65 and 73 inches, respectively, these models offer large displays that are perfect for movie nights or gaming sessions. The DLP technology utilized in these televisions ensures vibrant colors, deep blacks, and excellent contrast ratios, making images pop on the screen.

One of the standout features of these models is the incorporation of Mitsubishi's 6-Color Processing technology. Traditional televisions typically utilize only three primary colors (red, green, and blue). In contrast, the 6-Color Processing adds additional colors, including yellow, cyan, and magenta, resulting in a more accurate and richer color palette. This technology enhances the overall viewing experience, making it feel more lifelike and immersive.

The WD-65734 and WD-73734 also include Mitsubishi's advanced Brilliant Color technology. This feature optimizes color performance across various brightness levels, making images appear brighter and more vibrant without sacrificing detail in darker scenes. The result is a television that excels in a wide range of lighting conditions, from well-lit rooms to darkened home theaters.

In terms of connectivity, these models offer multiple HDMI ports, allowing users to easily connect their Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and streaming devices. They also support 1080p resolution, ensuring that viewers can fully enjoy HD content from various sources.

Another notable characteristic is the integrated Motion Estimation/Motion Compensation (MEMC) technology, which helps eliminate motion blur during fast-paced scenes. This is particularly advantageous for sports fans and action movie lovers, as it provides a smoother viewing experience.

Durability and reliability have been key considerations for Mitsubishi Electronics, and both the WD-65734 and WD-73734 are designed to provide long-lasting performance. The LED light source used in these models is not only energy-efficient but also has a longer lifespan compared to traditional lamps.

In summary, the Mitsubishi Electronics WD-65734 and WD-73734 DLP televisions deliver a compelling combination of advanced technology, stunning visual performance, and user-friendly features, making them excellent choices for anyone looking to enhance their home entertainment systems.
