VIZIO VBR120 User Manual Chapter 4 Connecting Equipment Which Video Connection Should I Use? You have three options for connecting your TV to your Blu-ray DVD Player: HDMI, Component, or Composite. Based on your home theater configuration, you can decide which option is the right one for you. High-definition video is only available through HDMI and Component connections. To view highdefinition content, your TV must support high-definition video. Consult your TV user manual regarding high-definition video support. Connection Quality Connector (type) Description Best (digital) HDMI delivers the best image quality of any of the cable types available and it's all done over one cable. You get a great picture and cut down on your cable clutter. HDMI provides digital quality and amazing sound so if your TV has HDMI, this is the connection type you should be using. Better (analog) Compatible (analog) Component consists of three cables for transmitting video and two cables for transmitting audio: one red and one white. Component video provides a sharper image than Composite video and should be used instead of composite when possible. However, because it is still an analog connection, it won't provide the high-quality video and audio that HDMI can produce. Composite consists of one yellow cable for transmitting video and two cables for transmitting audio: one red and one white. It is capable of transmitting stereo sound and standard definition video (480i). While it provides a good image, it has lower image quality than HDMI or Component. So try to use one of those connections first. Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 8, and 12 foot lengths.
