VIDEO/AUDIO INPUTS
INPUT 1 COMPOSITE INPUT Connect an NTSC (analog) device. These jacks
are used for most audio/video connections between devices. The audio/video
jacks are often color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for
left audio).
• R Audio Provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.
• L Audio Provides left audio connection and connector is usually white.
• V (Video) Provides composite video connection and connector is usually
yellow.
INPUT 2 COMPONENT/COMPOSITE INPUT Provides connection to a second
NTSC (analog) video device with either composite or component outputs such
as a VCR or DVD player.
L
• R Audio Provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.
• L Audio Provides left audio connection and connector is usually white.
R
• Y/Video P

B
connecting to a device with a Video jack instead, you can still use the
Y/Video jack.
Note: Also, remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the
Y, Pb, Pr cables carry only the picture signal, not the sound.
• S-VIDEO Lets you connect an S-Video cable for better picture quality to a
device with S-Video capability, such as a VCR or DVD player. When using
S-Video, make sure to connect the two audio cables as well as the
S-Video connector.
The S-Video jack provides better picture quality than the composite video
jacks because the color (chrominance, also called chroma) part of the signal
is separated from the black and white (luminance) part of the picture.
INPUT 3 COMPONENT/COMPOSITE INPUT Provides connection to a second
optional component video source, such as a DVD player or satellite receiver.
The jacks are the same as described above for INPUT 2.
