HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) - It is the
first and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-
digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an
White
interface between any audio/video source, such as a
set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an
audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital
television (DTV), over a single cable.
DTV Coaxial RF. When used for MPEG2 encoded
bit streams from ATSC broadcast programming, this
input takes advantage of the High Definition content.

TV Coaxial RF. This is the connection for standard
NTSC TV using antenna or cable.
RGB PC (VGA) – This video input has separate red,
green and blue color components.
Blue
carries horizontal and vertical sync information on
the green signal. This is most commonly used for
PC input.
Component 1/2 - The video signal is separated into
three signals, one containing the black-and-white
information and the other two containing the color
and
information. This enhancement over S-Video takes
advantage of the superior picture provided by
progressive scan DVD players and HDTV formats.
S-Video (AV1/AV2) - The video signal is separated
into two signals, one containing the black-and-white
information and the other containing the color
Red
information. Separating the color in this way avoids
'cross color' effects where closely spaced black and
white lines are erroneously displayed in color. It also
enables text to be displayed more sharply.
AV1/AV2 (Composite) - The complete video signal is
and
carried through this single pin connector. This is the
most commonly used video connection.
