03 Connecting your equipment Using the component video jacks Component video should deliver superior picture quality when compared to composite video. A further advantage (if your source and TV are both compatible) is progressive-scan video, which delivers a very stable, flicker-free picture. See the manuals that came with your TV and source component to check whether they are compatible with progressive-scan video. • If necessary, assign the component video inputs to the input source you've connected. This only needs to be done if you didn't connect according to the following defaults: • COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1 - BD • COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2 - DVD See The Input Assign menu on page 46 for more on this. • For the audio connection, refer to Connecting your component with no HDMI terminal on page 24.
