COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT Use to connect an optional component video source, such as a DVD player. This connection provides optimum quality. Note that it is essential to match the color coded connectors between a compatible device and the television.

Notes:

When watching an image via the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks, you will not be able to manipulate the screen format.

If the component you’re connecting to the TV has Component Output

jacks that aren’t labeled Y PB and PR, the color of the picture displayed on your TV might not look right because other types of Component Video (sometimes labeled Y, Cr, Cb, or YUV) separate the colors differently.

AUDIO R/L The audio jacks provide stereo sound. When connected, audio volume from the main front and rear speakers is variable audio.

• Y PB PR Unlike a single video input, component video maintains the video signal as three separate signals through these three jacks. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables for the Y, PB and PR connections.

AUDIO OUTPUTS

FIXED L/R Provides fixed-level of audio output from the television. This audio output is ideal for audio recording or for connecting to an A/V receiver amplifier (an auxiliary baseband component) when you want to control the volume through the A/V receiver instead of the TV. Be sure to turn off the internal speakers in the TV’s menu system (go to page 111 for details).

VARIABLE L/R Use to connect an A/V receiver or amplifier (an auxiliary baseband component) for variably-controlled stereo output.

• RIGHT and LEFT Speaker Terminals Use to connect external speakers for right and left surround sound.

INT / EXT (switch) INT sends audio to the TV’s internal speakers only. EXT sends audio to the external speakers only.
