Introducing the Sony LCD Projection TV
❑CableCARD™ slot: Provides cable subscribers with access to digitally encrypted cable channels — without the need for a set-top box — that will enable you to receive not only standard definition but also high definition television. The CableCARD, which is provided by your cable TV company, is inserted into the TV’s rear panel CableCARD slot. After the service is activated with your cable TV company, the card replaces the need for a separate set-top box. (Check with your cable TV company about CableCARD service details, limitations, pricing, and availability. For more information about CableCARD in this manual, see page 56.)
❑Component Video Inputs: Offers the best video quality for DVD (480p, 480i) and digital set-top box (1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i) connections.
❑S VIDEO Inputs: Provides a high-quality image from connected equipment.
❑Favorite Channel Preview: Allows you to preview up to sixteen favorite channels without leaving the current channel.
❑Wide Screen Mode: Allows you to watch 4:3 normal broadcasts in wide screen mode (16:9 aspect ratio).
❑Steady Sound®: Equalizes volume levels so there is consistent output between programs and commercials.
❑HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface): Provides an uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between this TV and any HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as a set top box, DVD player, and A/V receiver. HDMI supports enhanced, or high- definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio.
