Figure 5 – Video Connections
Dashed lines (––––) indicate coaxial and
optical digital audio connections. Choose
either type (but not both) for each digital
audio source.
Dotted lines (••••) indicate component,
composite or S-Video connections.
When used with a “digital ready” or HDTV
display of any type, all video input sources
are up-converted to 480P. In that case, con-
nect the Y/Pr/Pb component video monitor
outputs to a matching input on your display.
When using an analog television or video
display, you must connect both the compos-
ite and S-Video (if used) video monitor out-
puts to the TV (see page 19). Do not use
component video input connections if your
display does not have component inputs.
