The video cable supplied with your LIFESTYLE
connection.
In earlier instructions, composite cable is used to connect the Video OUT on the media center
to the TV Video IN. This connection serves to carry the DVD image to the TV screen.
Using a composite connection has its drawbacks:
• It restricts use of the Video IN jack on the media center to a composite connection only. The
media center passes only like signals through to the TV.
• Connecting another component to the Video IN jack requires an additional composite
cable, which is not supplied with the system.
Note: To see this type of Video IN connection, refer to "VCR connections" on page 30.
• You do not get the best video image possible from DVDs or a second video source.
If your TV supports a higher-quality Video input connection, we suggest using that instead.
Refer to "Moving beyond composite to S-Video"(below) and "Connecting for progressive
scan or HDTV" on page 29.

Moving beyond composite to S-Video

An S-Video input jack, provided on many TVs, delivers higher picture quality than composite
video output.
For this type of connection to the TV, use the supplied S-Video
cable. Insert one end into the S-Video OUT jack on the media center
and the other end into the S-Video input on your TV.
Note: To see this type of connection, refer to the diagram and instructions on using "Cable or
satellite box options" on page 31.
Using an S-Video connection means:
• It restricts use of the Video IN jack on the media center to an S-Video connection only. The
media center passes only like signals through to the TV.
• Connecting another component to the Video IN jack requires an additional S-Video cable,
which is not supplied with the system.
• A second component can be added by using a composite connection to Video IN on the
media center and a composite connection from the Video OUT to your TV.
Note: For details on connecting two components, refer to the diagram and instructions on
"Connecting a VCR in addition to cable/satellite" on page 32 or "Connecting a DVR in addition to
cable/satellite" on page 33.
