Special Features of Your TV

Your new high-definition widescreen television has many special features that make it the perfect center of your home entertainment system, including:

High Definition DLP™ Display System

Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV uses Texas Instruments most advanced Digital Light Processing™ technology for rear-projection televisions. This TV is truly a high- performance multimedia monitor uniquely capable of both stunning high-definition video images and clear, detailed, high-resolution images from a personal computer.

16:9 Widescreen Picture Format

Enjoy a full theatrical experience in the comfort of your home. View pictures as film directors intended them. Digital TV broadcasts, DVDs and newer video game con- soles support this widescreen format.

Integrated HDTV Tuner

Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV has an internal HDTV tuner able to receive both over-the-air HDTV broadcasts (received via an antenna) and non-scrambled digital cable broadcasts, including non-scrambled HDTV cable pro- gramming.

High-Definition Video Inputs

Three Component Video Inputs. Also called Y/Pb/ Pr inputs, these inputs receive standard analog video formats of 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i high-definition signals. This provides a high level of flexibility when connecting DVD players/recorders, cable boxes, and satellite receivers.

Two HDMI Inputs that accept digital 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video signals plus PCM digital stereo signals. Used with an adapter, these inputs also accept compatible DVI video signals. HDMI inputs provide additional high-performance, high- definition connections for maximum flexibility in your choice of home theater products. The HDMI inputs are HDCP copy-protection compatible.

Three IEEE 1394 Digital Interfaces that receive and send compressed digital signals, including high- definition signals, along with digital audio and control signals between devices such as the TV, digital cable boxes, and D-VHS digital video recorders.

ClearThought® Easy Connect Auto Input Sensing

ClearThought® automatically recognizes when you plug in an input and prompts you to assign a name to it. The TV ignores any unused inputs, so the result is an uncluttered Input Selection menu where you can easily find and select connected devices by name.
