■ Should I use the AUDIO/VIDEO OUT terminal
or the RF OUT terminal?
If your cable TV box has both AUDIO/VIDEO OUT terminals and
RF OUT terminals, we recommend connecting the AUDIO/
VIDEO OUT terminal with the unit’s IN1 terminal. Using this
connection provides better picture quality.
•
The S VIDEO terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the
VIDEO terminal.
