Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with
ColorStream
®
(component video) and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV broadcast),
VCR, and TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs. You can
record from one source while watching a program from another
source.
Your TV has ColorStream
®
(component video) inputs. Connecting
your TV to a DTV receiver with component video can greatly
enhance picture quality and realism.
You will need:
• three coaxial cables
• two sets of standard A/V cables
• one set of component video cables
• one pair of standard audio cables (or one digital audio cable, if
applicable; see pages 14, 53, and 57 for details on digital audio
connection)

DTV receiver with component video
Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, use
component video cables (or a DVI-D digital
single-link cable) between the TV and DTV
receiver.
You can connect component video cables
from the DTV receiver to either set of
ColorStream terminals on the TV (HD1 or
HD2).
The ColorStream HD1 and HD2 terminals
can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p)
and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems.
If your DTV receiver is not compatible
with component video (or DVI/HDCP), use
an S-video cable (plus an audio connection)
instead.
Do not connect both S-Video and standard
video cables between the TV and DTV
receiver at the same time, or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
To record from the DTV receiver, set the VCR
to Line IN. To monitor recording from the DTV
receiver, set the VCR to Line IN and the TV to
VIDEO 1.
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution,
or revision of television programs, videotapes,
DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to civil
and criminal liability.
