Using composite video or S-Video (receiver connections
only)
If you are using a cable or satellite receiver in your setup, you have the option of improving video quality
by connecting a composite video or S-Video cable (instead of an RF coaxial cable) from your receiver
to the TV tuner.
NOTE:
Some advanced connections require additional cables, purchased separately.
The following table compares the video types and associated video quality.
Supported video types
Video quality
RF coaxial/antenna (standard definition) Good
Composite
Better
S-Video
Best
Antenna (high definition)
Superior
NOTE:
If your computer and your TV support it, an HDMI connection provides superior video quality.
NOTE:
ATSC digital TV may be broadcast in either standard definition, approximately 640×480 (480i),
or high definition, approximately 1920×1080 (1080i).
