You will need:

coaxial cables

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. 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 to your VCR’s audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.

standard audio cables

component video cables

−−You can connect the component video cables (plus audio cables) from the DVD player or satellite receiver to either set of ColorStream terminals on the TV (HD-1 or HD-2). The ColorStream HD-1 and HD-2 terminals can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems.

A 1080i signal will provide the best picture performance (1080p is not supported).

−−If your DVD player or satellite receiver does not have component video, connect a standard A/V cable to VIDEO 2 on the side panel. If your DVD player has HDMI video, see page 16.
