Audio Connections; Connecting The Motorola Vip1002E Set-Top; Connecting To An Hdtv - Motorola VIP1002E Installation Manual

IMPORTANT: The very best audio and video connection for an HDMI TV is from the HDMI
output on the VIP1002E set-top. If you have an HDTV with DVI input, then you should
purchase an HDMI-to-DVI adapter to connect between your DVI TV and the HDMI output
on the VIP1002E set-top. No audio is present on this adapter, so you must connect the
Optical (S/PDIF) or L- and R- AUDIO outputs on the VIP1002E set-top to audio inputs on
your DVI TV.

Audio Connections

Depending on its capabilities, to connect your television or home theater receiver for audio,
use the digital output to deliver S/PDIF Dolby audio. In most cases, it offers better quality,
including support for Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.
NOTE: The cabling diagrams show sample audio/video (A/V) connections to a home
theater receiver where the home theater receiver functions as an A/V router. When
connecting to a home theater receiver, refer to its installation manual for information about
the baseband or S/PDIF inputs.
