Connecting A Dvd Player With Colorstream; (Component Video) And A Vcr - Toshiba 56HM195 Owner's Manual

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream

Your TV has ColorStream ® (component video) inputs.
You will need:
one signal splitter
three coaxial cables
two sets of standard A/V cables
• For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video, use an
S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard
video cable. However, do not connect both types of video cable to
VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
• If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV
(VIDEO 1) to your VCR's audio out terminal using the white
audio cable only.
one pair of standard audio cables
one set of component video cables
• You can connect the component video cables (plus audio
cables) from the DVD player to either set of ColorStream
terminals on the TV (HD-1 or HD-2). The ColorStream HD-1
and HD-2 terminals can be used with Progressive (480p,
720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems. A 1080i
signal will provide the best picture performance.
• If your DVD player does not have component video, see page
16. If your DVD player has HDMI video, see page 19.
