HDMI - Highest quality

HDMI produces the best audio visual quality
possible. Both audio and video signals are
combined in one HDMI cable, providing an
uncompressed, digital interface between your
TV and HDMI devices. You must use HDMI to
experience full high-defi nition video. You must
also use HDMI cables to enable Philips EasyLink
(see ‘Use Philips EasyLink’ on page 47 ) .
Tip
If your PC only has a DVI connector, use a DVI-HDMI •
adaptor to connect your device to a HDMI connector
at the back of the TV. You must connect a separate
audio cable from the device to the AUDIO IN mini-jack
connector.
Note
Philips HDMI supports HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital •
Contents Protection). HDCP is a form of Digital Rights
Management that protects high defi nition content in
DVD or Blu-ray Discs.

Component (Y Pb Pr) - Higher quality

Component (Y Pb Pr) video provides better
picture quality than S-Video or composite
video connections. Though component video
supports high-defi nition signals, picture quality is
lower than HDMI and is analogue.
When connecting a component video
cable, match the cable colours to the EXT 3
connectors on the back of the TV. Also, connect
a Audio L/R cable to the red and white Audio
L/R input connectors at EXT 3.

The number of HDMI connectors available may vary •
according to your TV model.
