COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal
These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output
and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal.
Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference
signals (P

) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to
achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P
