What You Can Connect to the
High-definition Input Jacks
1
HD INPUT-AV 4—use to connect dig-
ital equipment with a 1080i or a 480p
signal output, such as HD receivers
(1080i or 480p) or DVD players with
progressive-scan capability (480p). You
can connect equipment with YPbPr
component video or RGB outputs to
the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks. H and V
sync connections may or may not be
required for RGB connections. (See
page 59.) Dedicated audio input jacks
are located with the HD INPUT-AV 4
video jacks.
NOTE: The Picture-in-Picture (PIP)
feature is not available for use with AV 4.
2
HD INPUT-AV 5—use to connect digi-
tal equipment with DVI (digital visual
interface) 1080i or 480p output. DVI is
a specific digital input allowing
encrypted transmission of uncom-
pressed HD content. DVI includes
HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content
protection), which is supported by
Hollywood, satellite providers, and
most of the consumer electronics indus-
try. DVI is gaining momentum and
quickly becoming an industry standard
for the consumer to view high-definition
material while keeping content protected.
NOTE: The Picture-in-Picture (PIP)
feature is not available for use with AV5.

• The TV’s default color-space setting for HD
INPUT-AV 4 is YPbPr. If the picture looks
grossly incorrect, try changing the color-space
setting on either the digital equipment or the
TV. For more information on setting the color
space on the digital equipment, see the equip-
ment’s directions-for-use manual. To set the
TV’s color space, see page 61 in this manual.
• This television is designed to be compatible
with high-definition signal standards 1080i
and 480p as specified by the Electronic
Industries Association standard EIA770.3.
Because output standards may vary by manu-
facturer, you may encounter some digital
equipment that will not properly display pic-
tures on the TV.
• The Picture-in-Picture (PIP) feature does not
function with the HD INPUT-AV 4 or
HD INPUT-AV 5 signal sources. AV4 and
AV5 cannot be displayed in the PIP window,
nor can the PIP window be displayed when
either AV4 or AV5 is being viewed on the
main screen.
