3 CHAPTER 3

Setting up and connecting

Choose the highest quality connection that your TV supports. (See Chapter 1 for information on video connectors. See your TV owner’s manual for information on your TV’s capabilities.) The RGB, Component, and DVI jacks can carry any of the Digital TV and HDTV video resolutions. S-Video provides the next best video quality, followed by the standard A/V video outputs.

Since the RGB, component and DVI jacks do not output the 480i video format, do not connect a standard definition TV capable of displaying only 480i to the RGB, componet and DVI jacks.

Due to copyright restrictions, you may not be able to view some high definition programs in high definition format using this product. Whenever possible, you should connect both HD (RGB, Component, DVI) and SD (S-Video, A/V) interfaces to permit SD viewing of programs if HD viewing is restricted.

For the best access to high-definition programming at the highest available resolution broadcast by DIRECTV, connect the DVI/HDCP output to the corresponding DVI/HDCP input that supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) technology on a HD Television (HDTV) or HDTV Monitor. Please check your HDTV or HDTV Monitor user manual or contact the television manufacturer to find out if your HDTV or HDTV Monitor supports HDCP.

Whichever connection you choose, connect one end of the video cable(s) to the appropriate OUT jack(s) on the back of the DIRECTV® HD Receiver.

Connect the other end of the video cable(s) to the video input(s) on your TV.
