Connecting to your TV

This system offers three types of video
connections. If your TV has component video
inputs, see Connecting using component video
below.
1 Use the supplied yellow video cable to
connect the VIDEO OUT jack to a video input
on your TV.
For a better image, you can also use a
commercially available S-Video cable to
connect the S-VIDEO OUT jack to an S-Video
input on your TV.
2 Optionally: Use a stereo audio cable to
connect the audio outs of your TV (or VCR) to
the LINE IN jacks on the rear of this unit.
This will enable you to hear the TV (or VCR)
sound through this system. See Connecting
auxiliary components below for more on this.
Note
1 The component video output is switchable between interlaced and progressive formats. See Video Output settings on page 29.

Important
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible
with a progressive scan signal and switch
the system to progressive, you will not be
able to see any picture at all. In this case,
