This unit outputs only one type of video signals, so video signals output from this unit to the TV remain unchanged even if you switch to a device that outputs another type of video signals for playback. Therefore, you do not need to switch the video input on the TV. Furthermore, this unit converts the input analog video signals such as video and component video signals to high resolution digital HDMI video signals for output, improving the quality of the video. If your TV does not support HDMI connections, connect this unit to TV with analog video connectors. This unit can not convert HDMI input signals to analog video signals, so when inputting from an HDMI device, use component video or video input connectors. Information DVD 6
