COMPONENT VIDEO (CVI) INPUT CONNECTIONS
C
omponent Video inputs provide
for the highest possible color
and picture resolution in the play-
back of digital signal source materi-
al, such as with DVD players. The
color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and
the luminance (Y) signal are con-
nected and received separately,
which allows for improved color
bandwidth information (not possible
when using composite video or
S-Video connections).
1
Connect the Component (Y,
Pb, Pr) Video OUT jacks from
the DVD player (or similar
device) to the (Y, Pb, Pr) in(put)
jack on the TV. When using the
Component Video Inputs, it is
best not to connect a signal to the
AV in Video Jack.
2
Connect the red and white
AUDIO CABLES to the Audio
(left and right) output jacks on
the rear of the accessory device
to the Audio (L and R) AV1 in
Input Jacks on the TV.
3
Turn the TV and the DVD (or
digital accessory device) ON.
4
Press the CH + or CH –
buttons to scroll the available
channels until CVI appears in
the upper left corner of the TV
screen.
5
Insert a DVD disc into the DVD
player and press the PLAY 
button on the DVD Player.
The description for the component video
connectors may differ depending on the
DVD player or accessory digital source
equipment used (for example, Y, Pb, Pr; Y,
B-Y, R-Y; Y, Cr, Cb). Although abbrevia-
tions and terms may vary, the letters b and r
stand for the blue and red color component
signal connectors, and Y indicates the lumi-
nance signal. Refer to your DVD or digital
accessory owner’s manual for definitions and
connection details.
