While there are many different ways to connect your source equipment to your PFP Controller, the exam-
ples shown above are the most common and are recommended by Runco.
• COMPOSITE VIDEO INPUT:
Composite video is the most common type of signal used, but is also the lowest in picture quality. Many
sources have outputs that are limited to Composite video, such as some VCR's and camcorders. Others,
such as Laser Disc players, actually produce slightly better results when using Composite video. While the
PFP Controller has an excellent decoder for Composite video, it is recommended that Composite video be
used only if necessary.
• S-VIDEO INPUT
S-Video is the second-best type of signal that can be used, but is MUCH better than Composite video. Using
such sources as satellite receivers, high-quality VCRs and DVD players (with no Component output) will-
produce a MUCH cleaner and sharper signal. Decoder artifacts that are associated with Composite video
(dot crawl and 'rainbows') are non-existent when using S-Video.
• COMPONENT INPUT
Component video is the best type of signal that can be used. The most common sources that use
Component outputs are DVD players, and it is highly recommended that Component be used when possi-
ble. Component video goes one step beyond S-Video in picture quality; chroma (color) information is more
resolved and the overall picture appears more well-defined.
• HDTV/COMPUTER
All HDTV signals must be input into this port. It may also be used for other high-resolution signals such as
progressive DVD players or computers.
