Chapter 2: Connecting your TV Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream® (component video), a VCR, and a satellite receiver Your TV has two sets of ColorStream® HD (high definition component video) inputs. You will need: • coaxial cables • standard A/V cables - For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video, connect an S-video cable and standard (analog) audio cables to the VIDEO-2 inputs on the side panel (instead of the VIDEO-1 inputs). Do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO-2 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable. - If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV to your VCR's audio out terminal using the white audio cable only. • standard audio cables • component video cables - You can connect the component video cables (plus audio cables) from the DVD player or satellite receiver to either set of ColorStream terminals on the TV (HD-1 or HD-2). The ColorStream HD-1 and HD-2 terminals can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems. A 1080i signal will provide the best picture performance. - If your DVD player or satellite receiver does not have component video or S-video, connect standard A/V cables to VIDEO-1. If your DVD player has HDMI video, see page 15. To view antenna or Cable channels: Select the antenna/cable channel input source on the TV.* To view the DVD player: Turn ON the DVD player.
