Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, use
component video cables between the TV and
DVD player. Connect the component video
cables from the DVD player to the TV’s
ColorStream inputs.
The ColorStream inputs on the TV are for use
with DVD players that offer 480i interlaced
scanning ONLY. If you have a 480p
progressive scan DVD player, you
must switch the DVD player to 480i
interlaced mode first, and then connect it
to the TV’s ColorStream inputs. Failure to do
this will cause unacceptable picture
performance.
You can connect a high-definition set-top
receiver only if the output is switched to the
480i interlaced mode first. This TV will
not accept or display 480p or 720p
progressive scan signals or 1080i
interlaced high-definition signals.
If your DVD player is not compatible with
component video, use an S-video cable (plus
the standard audio cables) instead of
component video cables.
Do not connect both S-video and standard
video cables between the TV and DVD player
at the same time, or the picture performance
will be unacceptable.
Note:
Do not connect the same VCR to the output
and input jacks on the TV at the same time.
If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables
instead of a standard video cable. Do not
connect both a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time, or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
To dub or edit, VCR 2 must select Line IN,
and the TV must select Video-1.
*
The Audio OUT jacks can output the sound
of either the Main or PIP picture (see
“Selecting the Audio OUT sound” on page
45).
**
The Video OUT jack does not output the
PIP picture.
