S-video cables
S-video cables give you clearer picture
reproduction than standard RCA video cables
by sending separate signals for the luminance
and color.
Component video cables
Use component video cables to get the best
possible color reproduction of your video
source. The color signal of the TV is divided into
the luminance (
Y
) signal and the color (
P
B
and
P
R
) signals and then output. In this way,
interference between the signals is avoided.
About the video converter
VSX-915 model only
The video converter allows you to connect
video sources using composite connections
and the signal will be output through both the
composite and S-video
MONITOR OUT
jacks
1
.
If more than one video component is
connected to the same input function, the
converter gives priority to the S-video
connection.
The following chart shows when the video
signal will be converted fro
m the vari
ous video
inputs (left column) for output to the
MONITOR OUT
jacks (top row):
The
mark above indicates that the
component video input must be assigned
before it will be output (see
Assigning the
component video inputs
on page 66 for
more on this).
When recording video sources, they must
be connected using the same type of video
cable as you used to connect the recorder
to the receiver.
Also note that this feature is available with
NTSC signals only. For PAL signals, make
sure you’ve used the same type of cable for
your video component and monitor
connections.
Note
1 The
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks only output the signal from the component video input.
