2.2 Connecting Your DVD Player

You have several options for connecting your DVD player to your L42HDTV – HDMI, Component, S-
Video and Composite (AV) inputs. Based on your home theater configuration, you can decide which
option is the right one for you.

2.2.1 Using HDMI

DVD players that have a digital interface such as HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) should be
connected to the HDMI input of the VIZIO L42HDTV for optimal results.
Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable available up to 10 meters or less.
