Connecting Your TV
Overview of cable types
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of
three, and connect to video devices with analog audio and
composite video output. These cables (and the related inputs on
your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for
video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono)
audio.
