15 Chapter 2 - Connecting Components Which Video Connection Should I Use? The VIZIO HDX 20L LCD TV has four different ways to connect your video equipment from a basic one to the most advanced for digital displays. Connection Quality Cable and Connector Description OK Basic Coaxial RF. This is the only connection that has the audio and the video in one cable. If you have an antenna or cable, this is the only way you can connect it to the LCD TV. If you have a VCR, you can connect your antenna or cable to the VCR RF Input and connect the VCR RF Output to this connector. Composite. The complete video signal is carried through this single pin connector. This is the most commonly used video connection. Good Better S-Video. The video signal is separated into two signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other containing the color information. Separating the color in this way avoids cross color effects where closely spaced black and white lines are erroneously displayed in color. It also enables text to be displayed more sharply. Component. The video signal is separated into three signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other two containing the color information. This enhancement over S- Video takes advantage of the superior picture provided by progressive scan DVD players and HDTV formats. Color Coded Connections In this chapter, you will see how to connect your most commonly used your home theater components including your DVD player, HDTV set-top box, VCR, video camera and coaxial cable. For your convenience, the side connections have been grouped together by color bands which are referenced within the instructions. Please see below for a brief overview.
