Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

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

Your TV has ColorStream¨ (component video) inputs.

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 (or VIDEO 2) 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.

one pair of standard audio cables one set of component video cables

¥You can connect the component video cables (plus audio cables) from the DVD player 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.

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