2.4.2 Connecting to your television

Between all the following connectors of the digital receiver, we recommend you to use the first connector to get best picture quality. If your television does not have the matching connector, then use the next connector in the following order for better picture quality.

1.SCART connector (TV)

2.S-Video connector (S-VIDEO)

3.Composite connector (VIDEO)

4.RF connector (RF OUT)

You should configure audio and video settings after connecting up the digital receiver. See § 3.2 for detailed description.

To use the SCART connector

For best results with a standard television set, you should use a SCART cable, plugging one end into the TV socket on the digital receiver and the other end into a free SCART socket on your television.

Some televisions have inputs via Component connector or S-Video connector rather than

SCART.

If you have such a television, use an appropriate conversion ca- ble to link the TV socket on the digital receiver to the matching socket on your television.

If you connect with a standard SCART cable, you do not have to make audio connections because the SCART connector can output stereo audio. But if you use a conversion cable, such as SCART-to-Component, you have to make audio connections.
