The scart sockets at the back of the television are a convenient way of connecting audio and video (AV) signals to

and from the television. As the signals are in a more basic form than the signal at the aerial socket, they are less

likely to be affected by interference and other things that can reduce picture quality. This television has two scart

sockets on special channels called AV1 and AV2. As well as the scart sockets there are video and audio input sock-

ets behind the front control flap provide a different way of connecting to the AV2 channel, but you cannot use scart

socket 2 and these sockets at the same time.

information

Video and RGB

The sharpest and clearest possible picture is reproduced from separate red, green and blue signals (RGB) which

are usually produced by digital equipment. Digital and other equipment also produce the video signal which

contains all the picture information in just one connection (CVBS for composite video, blanking and

synchronisation).

S-video or S-VHS

'S' stands for 'super' and 'VHS' is a type of video recording system. If a video recorder has the S-VHS feature, it

can be connected to the scart socket AV2 to get better quality pictures than ordinary videos can give. You must

use a scart lead made for S-VHS (or S-video). Other equipment, like DVD players, may have a super-video

output.

NTSC and tint control

Imported video discs and cassettes may be recorded with the NTSC television system which is used in America

and Japan. This television can play NTSC video providing it is connected through the scart socket and not the

aerial cable. While reproducing NTSC video the picture menu has a tint control on it which you can adjust to get

the best appearance of natural colours on the picture (see 'Menus for controlling and setting up the television').

Other kinds of video do not need a tint control.

Automatic AV mode or 'video' switching

Some equipment provides an automatic switching signal, so that the video recorder (and so on) 'tells' the

television to reproduce its video and audio signals. You can over-ride the automatic switching by pressing the AV

button b

b until you get back to normal programme numbers.

Automatic switching signals do not always agree. If this happens you will have to buy a scart lead without the

video-switching signal connection.

Equipment that can be connected

You can usually connect video recorders, camcorders, satellite receivers, video disc players, audio amplifiers and

video games to the television using the scart sockets. We cannot guarantee that all combinations of equipment

will work.

What is the second scart socket for ?

There are other possible combinations besides the ones we have given you. When you have gained some

experience you might want to change the connections yourself and make use of the extra socket. You could feed

sound signals out to a surround sound amplifier or connect a DVD player with S-video output.
