COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal.

Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the televi- sion or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.

≥After making this connection, change the

black level for a better picture (➜ page 45, Video–Black Level Control).

When making this connection, ensure you connect the audio cables to the corre- sponding audio input terminals on the television.

AUDIO/VIDEO terminal, the S-VIDEO OUT terminal or the

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal. If the television has none

of these terminals, consult your local dealer.
