You will need:
coaxial cables
standard A/V cables
For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video,
use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of
the standard video cable. Do not connect both types of
video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
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
either set of ColorStream terminals on the TV (HD 1 or
HD 2). The ColorStream HD 1 and HD 2 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 2 on the side panel. If your DVD player has HDMI
video, see page 17.
