HELPFUL HINTS

•Signals connected to the HD INPUT-AV 4 or HD INPUT-AV 5 inputs will provide you with the best picture. Examples of sources for such signals are a progressive-scan DVD player (480p) or an HD receiver (1080i or 480p) with YPbPr or RGB outputs. The 1080i signals will provide you with the best picture possible. Devices with RGB outputs may or may not have H and V sync outputs to connect to the HD INPUT-AV 4 H and V SYNC inputs (see page 57). Instructions for selecting the AV4 color space (YPbPr or RGB) are on page 59.

•Among the 480i-compatible inputs (ANTENNA IN 75Ω , INPUT AV-1, INPUT AV-2, and the side jack panel), you will get the best picture from the component video inputs (labeled YPbPr). The S-Video inputs will provide the next-best level of picture quality.

cCHECK IT OUT

The side jack-panel inputs (recognized by the TV as AV3) are convenient for connecting a camcorder. See page 16.
