Making the Video Connections
Choose one of the following connections:
•
Best (HD Video and Digital Audio):
Connect the HDMI cables to the HDMI jacks on the receiver
and your TV. HDMI cables also carry digital audio, so you do not need to make a separate audio
connection, unless you would like to use other audio outputs; for example, if you want to connect your
DIRECTV HD Receiver to a stereo or home theater system.
•
Better (HD Video):
Connect one end of the Component (Y Pb Pr) video cables to the
COMPONENT OUT video jacks on the DIRECTV HD Receiver. Connect the other end of the
component video cable to the component input on your TV, making sure to correctly match the
red, green and blue connectors. You will need to connect audio separately. (Note, some TV sets have
component video inputs that are non-HD. In this case, component video has the best available non-
HD picture quality.)
•
Good (Non-HD):
Connect one end of the S-Video cables to the S-VIDEO OUT jacks on the
DIRECTV HD Receiver. Connect the other end to the S-Video input on your TV. Note: Th
e S-
Video cable will not provide an HD signal to your TV.
•
Not recommended (Non-HD)
. You
can
use RCA connectors to connect your DIRECTV HD
Receiver to your TV, but it is not recommended. To get the best quality of image, use one of the
above methods. However, if your TV does not support S-Video, component or HDMI connections,
connect one end of the RCA cable (usually with a yellow plug) to the VIDEO OUT jack on the
DIRECTV HD Receiver. Connect the other end to the video input on your TV.
TIP
To switch between watching your
VCR and watching video from
your receiver, you may need to
program the INPUT key on your
DIRECTV Remote. (See page 70
for info.) Some TVs also have a
MENU button that allows you to
change the video source using
an onscreen menu. If you have
trouble changing the video
source, refer to the instructions
that came with your TV.
To obtain optimum picture quality, make sure the receiver is connected directly to the TV. Connecting your TV directly to
the Audio/Video output of your receiver will assure a more vivid picture and enhance your viewing enjoyment, particularly
when viewing copy-protected programming.
