Selecting your connection quality

HDMI - Highest quality

Supports high-deﬁ nition signals and gives highest picture and sound

quality. Video and audio signals are combined in one cable. You must use

HDMI for full high-deﬁ nition video and to enable Philips EasyLink.

Note

• Philips HDMI supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection). HDCP is

a form of Digital Rights Management that protects high deﬁ nition content in DVD or

Blu-ray Discs.

• The HDMI ARC connector on the TV features HDMI ARC functionality. This allows

output of TV audio to an HDMI ARC-compliant device.

Component (Y Pb Pr) - High quality

Component video cable (red / green / blue) and audio L/R cable (red / white).

Supports high-deﬁ nition signals but gives lower picture quality than HDMI.

Component cables combine a red / green / blue video cable with a

red / white audio L/R cable. Match the cable colors when you connect

to the TV.

Composite - Basic quality

Composite video / audio cable (yellow / red / white)

For analog connections. Composite cables usually combine a yellow

video cable with a red / white audio L/R cable. Match the audio cable

colors when you connect to the TV.
