Quick Setup
By connecting an HDMI compatible device, high definition pictures can be displayed on your
TV in their digital form. Some HDMI devices can include DVD players, D-VHS or other HDMI
compatible device.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry supported, uncompressed, all
digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video source,
such as a set-top box, DVD player, A/V receiver or an audio and/or video monitor, such as a
digital television (DTV).

the HDMI INPUT-1 on the back of the TV.
Notes:
• When you do the above connection, set "VIDEO-1 AUDIO" in the INITIAL SETUP menu to
"DIGITAL". See "VIDEO-1 AUDIO", page 30.
• Some decoders may not respond depending on the equipment that is connected to the HDMI.
• If the HDMI output device signal is changed (for example, 480i/60Hz is changed to
480p/60Hz), the screen may turn green and there may be some distortion for a short time
until the signal becomes stable.
• This TV can accept 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p signals via HDMI.
• This JVC television can accept a variety of HD signals, including 720/60p, 1080/60i and
1080/60p. It does not accept a 1080/24p signal. Please note that in some cases, a Blu-ray
or HD-DVD may only offer the choice of 1080/60i or 1080/24p. In this case, it is necessary
to choose the 1080/60i output. Please refer to your Blu-ray/HD-DVD manual for complete
details on choosing the correct output.
