DirecTV HD DVR DVR User Manual


 
7
5) COMPONENT OUT/ YPbPr (G, R, B) – Provides good HD picture quality, but not as good as
HDMI. YPbPr carries only picture information, not sound; use it along with a digital audio con-
nection or AUDIO (L/R red/white) jacks.
6) AUDIO (R-Red and L-White) – Audio cables offer better sound quality than RF coaxial cables.
You can connect a second set of audio cables to another component, such as a VCR or stereo.
7) VIDEO (Yellow) – Provides good picture quality for standard-definition TV. Connect the second
RCA-type composite VIDEO jack to another device, such as a VCR. You must also connect the
AUDIO cables when using the VIDEO connection.
8) S-VIDEO OUT – Provides the best picture quality for standard-definition TV, better than VID-
EO RCA-type jacks. If your TV has an S-Video jack, use it along with the AUDIO jacks (S-Video
only carries picture information, not sound) to connect to your TV. (Cable sold separately.)
9) DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) – Provides digital-quality audio signal. (Cable sold sepa-
rately.)
10) HDMI – Provides the best quality HD picture (better than YPbPr/component video). e HDMI
also provides audio, for a high-quality, “one-cable” solution. (Cable sold separately.)
11) S-ATA PORT – For future use.
12) USB – For future use.
13) ETHERNET (RJ45) – For future use.
14) AC POWER INLET – Connects the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR to an electrical outlet. We recom-
mend you use a surge protector to safeguard your DIRECTV Plus HD DVR from power spikes.
