The television has a Scart
terminal and component video
input terminal. Which terminal
should I connect with?
≥
If you have a regular television (CRT: cathode ray tube) we recommend using
the Scart terminal. You can enjoy high-quality RGB video from this unit by
connecting to an RGB compatible television.
If you have an LCD/plasma television or LCD projector compatible with
progressive scan, connect through the component video terminals for high-
quality progressive video.
If you have a CRT television or a multi system television using PAL mode that
is compatible with progressive scan, we cannot recommend progressive
output as some flickering can occur.
