The television has both S-VIDEO IN
terminal and COMPONENT VIDEO IN
terminals. Which terminal should I connect
with?

≥Connecting with the component video out terminal provides a more

vivid picture compared to connecting with the S-Video out terminal.
If you have an LCD/plasma television or LCD projector compatible with
progressive scan, connect through the component video terminals for
high-quality progressive video.
If you have a CRT television or a multi system television using PAL
mode that is compatible with progressive scan, we cannot recommend
progressive output as some flickering can occur.
