Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream® (component video) and a VCR

Your TV has ColorStream® (component video) inputs.

From antenna or Cable

You will need:

￿one signal splitter

￿three coaxial cables

￿two sets of standard A/V cables

¥For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video, use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cable. However, do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

¥If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCRÕs audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.

¥You can connect the component video cables (plus audio cables) from the DVD player to the ColorStream terminal on the TV. The ColorStream HD terminal can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems. A 1080i signal will provide the best picture performance.

¥If your DVD player does not have component video, see page 16. If your DVD player has HDMI video, see page 19.
