Connecting to a normal TV (16:9/4:3)

This connection type is used when downconverting recorded HD images to SD for playback.

When playing back HD-quality (1920x1080) movie images on a SDTV, the images are down-converted to 720x576.

The multi-AV cable does not support HD-quality images so it down-converts them to SD-quality images.

Before connecting your HD camcorder to a TV, set the same screen aspect ratio on your HD camcorder as on your TV. page 76
