Composite VIDEO jack
Video signals input through the
VIDEO
jacks are the conventional
composite video signals.
2
S VIDEO jack
Video signals input through the
S VIDEO
jacks are separated into
luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals. The S-video signals
achieve high quality color reproduction. When you are using the
S
VIDEO
jacks, check the details in the owner’s manual that came
with the component being connected.

COMPONENT VIDEO jacks
Video signals input through the
COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks are
separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (P
B
/C
B
, P
R
/C
R
)
video signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal.
The labels of the component video jacks may be different depend-
ing on the component (e.g. Y, C
B
, C
R
/ Y, P
B
, P
R
/ Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.).
Component video signals provide the best quality in picture
reproduction. When you are using the
COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks, check the details in the owner’s manual that came with the
component being connected.
Cautions
• Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to
the
S VIDEO
jacks, and commercially available video cables
when connecting to the
COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks.
• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input
through the composite video, S-video, and component jacks are
output through the corresponding composite video, S-video, and
component jacks respectively.
• If your video monitor is connected only to the
COMPONENT
VIDEO
jacks of this unit, the OSD is not shown.
Note
• You can designate the input for the
COMPONENT VIDEO A
,
B
and
C
jacks according to your component by using “8 I/O
ASSIGNMENT” on the SET MENU (see page 58 for details).
