Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Connection

This TV is capable of displaying 480i, 1080i and 480p DTV signals when connected to a DTV Tuner Set-Top-Box (STB) or
using the internal DTV Tuner. This TV also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which de-interlaces the NTSC signal and
progressively scans the image.
This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated with
interlaced TV pictures.
• To view DTV programs, connect the STB to the component video input terminals (Y, P
inputs provide luminance and separate color signal.
• Select the output of the STB to either 480i, 1080i or 480p.
• A DTV signal must be available in your area.
• Use a Panasonic DTV-STB (Digital TV-Set-Top Box) or DVD Player.

Notes:
• When a device (STB, DVD, etc.) is connected to the HDMI terminal (see page 16), no video or audio is output due to
license restrictions.
• Program Out signal may not be available when COMPONENT input (see page 20) is selected for the Main picture during
PIP or SPLIT operation (see pages 52, 54).
• When receiving digital channel signals, all digital formats are down-converted to composite NTSC video to be output
through Program Out terminals.
• Some programs contain Macrovision signal to prevent VCR recording.
