≥ This audio connection will enable you to play audio from your
television through your home theater system. Refer to “Operating other
equipment” (
➜ page 30).
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT
≥Using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals
The COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals provides a purer picture than
the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. These terminals can be used for either
interlaced or progressive output. Connection using these terminals
outputs the color difference signals (P
B /P R ) and luminance signal (Y)
separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
≥ The description of the component video input terminals depends on
the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P B /P R , Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/C B /C R ). Connect
to terminals of the same color.
≥ After making this connection, select “Darker” from the “Black Level
Control” in the “Video” tab ( ➜ page 24).
S-VIDEO OUT
≥Using the S-VIDEO OUT terminal
The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the
VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance
(Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)
