3 CONNECTING YOUR DCX SET-TOP
•
HDMI or IEEE-1394 — HDTV and SDTV
HDMI and IEEE-1394 offer higher quality HD video than
component video.
If your TV has an HDMI input, this is for both audio and video.
Connect a Standard HDMI cable to the TV and to the HDMI
connector on your DCX set-top.
HDMI and IEEE-1394 outputs provide video and audio, so no
separate audio connections are required if you plan to use your
TV's speakers as the primary audio source.
On-screen graphics will not be displayed when you are using
the IEEE-1394 connection on the rear panel of the DCX set-
top. Refer to
If your TV has a DVI input, connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or
cable to the HDMI out connector on the DCX set-top and the
DVI-HDTV connector on your TV.
Note: DVI does not provide audio. A separate audio connection
must be made.
•
Component video (YPbPr) — HDTV and SDTV
The YPbPr connectors on your DCX set-top provide HDTV and
SDTV component video.
Note: Component video does not provide audio. A separate
audio connection must be made.
•
S-Video — SDTV
If a component video input is not available on your TV, use the
S-Video connection.
Note: S-Video does not provide audio. A separate audio
connection must be made.
