HDMI or IEEE-1394 — HDTV and SDTV
HDMI and IEEE-1394 offer higher quality HD video than component video.
•
If your TV has an HDMI input, this is for both audio and video. Connect a Standard
HDMI cable to the TV and to the HDMI connector on your DCX set-top.
•
HDMI and IEEE-1394 outputs provide video and audio, so no separate audio
connections are required if you plan to use your TV’s speakers as the primary audio
source.
•
On-screen graphics will not be displayed when you are using the IEEE-1394
connection on the rear panel of the DCX set-top. Refer to the On-Screen Graphics
section for more information.
•
If your TV has a DVI input, connect a HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable to the HDMI out
connector on the DCX set-top and the DVI HDTV connector on your TV.
Note: DVI does not provide audio. A separate audio connection must be made.
Component Video (YPbPr) — HDTV and SDTV
The YPbPr connectors on your DCX set-top provide HDTV and SDTV component video.
Note: Component video does not provide audio. A separate audio connection must be
made.
Composite Video — SDTV
Use the composite video connection to connect an SDTV.
Note: Composite video does not provide audio. A separate audio connection must be
made.
