Connecting your TV

Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with ColorStream® (component video) and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV), VCR, and TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs.

Your TV has ColorStream® (component video) inputs. Connecting your TV to a DTV receiver with component video can greatly enhance picture quality and realism.

You will need:

three coaxial cables

two sets of standard A/V cables

one set of standard audio cables

one set of component video cables

Note:

You can connect the component video cables to either set of ColorStream jacks on the TV (HD-1 or HD-2.)

The ColorStream HD-1 and HD-2 jacks and HDMI-1 and HDMI-2 jacks can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems.

If your DTV receiver does not have compo- nent video, use the S-video and standard audio connections instead. Do not connect both an S-video and a standard video cable to VIDEO-1 (or VIDEO-2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

For an HDMI connection, see page 14.
