Radio antenna connections
Other video connection [COMPONENT\VIDEO\OUT] This connection provides a much purer picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal. Connect the Component Video cable (not supplied) from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal on the main unit to the COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminal on your TV. To enjoy progressive video Connect to a progressive output compatible TV. Set VIDEO OUT (I/P) in VIDEO menu to PROGRESSIVE and then follow the instructions on the menu screen ( 15). Panasonic TVs with 576/50i50p, 480/60i60p input terminals are progressive compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of TV. Do not make the video connections through the VCR. Due to copy guard protection, the picture may not be displayed properly. Only one video connection is required. Choose one of the video connections above depending on your TV. [Note] If you have various sound sources (such as Blu-ray player, DVD recorder, VCR, etc.), connect them to the available inputs on the TV and the TV output should then be connected to the AUX/TV terminal of the main unit.
