Connecting to the TV

Set up the TV by connecting cables and connecting the AC power cord.

Choosing the AV connection to use

When connecting optional audiovisual (AV) equipment

as signal sources, the connectors on the equipment

may limit the type of connection you can use.

When your optional equipment has more than one type

of output connector, choose the connection that

provides the best-quality playback image.

The following table lists the available optional AV

equipment connections on the TV.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) transmits an all-digital

signal. This is the recommended choice for high-definition signals,

and for playback from a digital set-top box, DVD player, or DVR

device.

For a DVI-D device, you can use a DVI cable with an DVI-to-HDMI

converter to connect video to the HDMI 1 connector on the TV, and

an audio cable to connect audio from the source to the HDMI

Audio In L and R connectors on the TV.

Use this connection for standard or high-definition video signals in

480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, or 1080p input format from a set-top

box, DVD player, or other device. This TV does not support Dolby

Digital audio input over HDMI. When connecting a set-top box,

DVD player, or other device by means of the HDMI connector, set

the device audio output to PCM format.

Component video (Y, Pb, and Pr) transmits video as separate red,

green, and blue signals. Use this connection for standard or high-

definition video signals in 480i, 480p, 720p, or 1080i format from

a DVD player or other equipment.

S-Video transmits standard video as separate color and

black-and-white image signals and delivers a sharper image than a

composite video connection.

Video In (composite video) transmits standard video as a single

signal.
