COMPONENT VIDEO OUT

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT socket

These sockets can be used for interlace or progressive output and deliver a clearer picture than the S VIDEO OUT socket. Connections via these sockets output colour difference signals (PB/PR) and brightness signal (Y) separately. The properties of the COMPONENT VIDEO input socket are dependent on the television set or screen.

Always connect sockets of the same colour.

Connect the Audio cable to the corresponding audio input sockets of the television.
