4. AV input (INPUT)
These jacks receive audio and video from a compatible
component, such as a satellite receiver. Another set of
input jacks are on the front of the unit for temporarily
connecting components such as a camcorder or a video
game unit.
5. S-Video input (INPUT)
If your satellite receiver or cable box has an S-VIDEO
output jack, connect the S-VIDEO cable to this jack
because it provides better picture quality than standard
video (the yellow jack). Besides the S-Video input jack at
the rear panel, there is another one on the front of the
unit.
