Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream
®
(component video), a VCR, or
a satellite receiver
You will need:
• Coaxial cables
• Standard A/V cables
- If you have a mono VCR, connect L / MONO
on the TV to your VCR’s audio out terminal
using the white audio cable only.
• Standard audio cables
• Component video cables
- You can connect the component video
cables (plus audio cables) from the DVD
player or satellite receiver to the
ColorStream HD terminals (Y, PB, and PR)
on the TV. The ColorStream HD terminals
can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p)
and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems. A
1080i signal will provide the best picture
performance (1080p is not supported).
- If your DVD player or satellite receiver does
not have component video, connect a
standard A/V cable to VIDEO on the back
panel. If your DVD player has HDMI video,
see page 16.
