The S(uper)-Video connection on the rear of the TV can provide you with better pic-

ture detail and clarity for the playback of accessory sources such as DBS (digital broad- cast satellite), DVD (digital video discs), video games, and S-VHS VCR (video cassette recorder) tapes than the normal antenna pic- ture connections.

NOTE: When using additional accessories, only one external source will be audible, as there is only one set of sound inputs. Component Video (CVI) input will dominate over all other inputs, including S-Video (S-VHS) and AV. When S-Video (S-VHS) is used, it will dominate over the AV input.

Component Video inputs provide for the highest possible color and picture resolu-

tion in the playback of digital signal source material, such as with DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance (Y) signal are connected and received separately, which allows for improved color bandwidth information (not possible when using composite video or S- Video connections).

NOTE: When using additional accessories, only one external source will be audible, as there is only one set of sound inputs. Component Video (CVI) input will dominate over all other inputs, including S-Video (S-VHS) and AV. When S-Video (S-VHS) is used, it will dominate over the AV input.
