CMPT (Component) Input
•Y Pb Pr VIDEO IN For connection of components that have component output jacks (Y, Pb, Pr), such as a
personal computer, HD receiver, DVD player, or other device with component outputs.
The Y Pb Pr jacks provide excellent picture quality because the video is separated into three signals.
•R AUDIO IN Provides right audio connection when using the Y Pb Pr jacks. The right audio connector is
usually red.
• L/Mono AUDIO IN Provides left audio connection when using the Y Pb Pr jacks. The left audio connector is
usually white.
Note: If your component has only one output for audio (mono), connect it to the L/Mono AUDIO jack on the TV
and don’t connect the R AUDIO part of the cable. In this case, you need to change a setting to hear sound from
both speakers. Go to the Sound menu, highlight Sound Type and then choose Mono.
VID1 Input
• S-VIDEO IN The S-Video (super video) jack provides better picture quality than the regular video jack because
the color (chrominance, also called chroma) part of the signal is separated from the black and white (luminance)
part of the picture.
Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables to the AUDIO IN jacks because the
S-VIDEO cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.
•R AUDIO IN Provides right audio connection when using the VIDEO or S-VIDEO jack. The right audio
connector is usually red.
• L/Mono AUDIO IN Provides left audio connection when using the VIDEO or S-VIDEO jack. The left audio
connector is usually white.
Note: If your component has only one output for audio (mono), connect it to the L/Mono AUDIO jack on the TV
and don’t connect the R AUDIO part of the cable. In this case, you need to change a setting to hear sound from
both speakers. Go to the Sound menu, highlight Sound Type and then choose Mono.
• VIDEO IN Provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually yellow.
