Component Video (YPbPr)

To connect your audio connections for an A/V receiver, go to Connecting Your DCH Receiver to an A/V Receiver— Audio.

Note: Be sure to match up each signal to the same connection on the TV, otherwise the colors will not appear correctly on your TV.

HDMI

If your TV has an HDMI input, this is for both audio and video if you are using the TV speakers. Connect an HDMI cable to the TV and to the HDMI connector on your DCH receiver.

If your TV has a DVI input, use the DVI connection for your video:

•Connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or cable to the HDMI out connector on the DCH receiver and the DVI-HDTVconnector on your TV.

A DVI connection supports only the video connection between the DCH receiver and the HDTV. To connect the audio connections for your HDTV, proceed to the following page. To connect your audio connections for an A/V receiver, go to Connecting Your DCH Receiver to an A/V Receiver — Audio.

If you have an audio/video receiver and are not using your TV’s speakers, go to Connecting Your DCH Receiver to an A/V Receiver — Audio.

DVI does not provide audio. A separate audio connection must be made.

IEEE-1394

If your HDTV has an IEEE-1394 connector, you can use the IEEE-1394 for both your video and audio connection:

•Connect an IEEE-1394 cable to the IEEE-1394 connector on your HDTV and DCH receiver.

On-screen graphics will not be displayed when you are using the IEEE-1394 connection on the rear panel of the DCH receiver.
