There are several ways to connect your player to your TV. The method you choose depends on the inputs supported by your TV and the cables you have available.
Your player includes a component cable and an HDMI cable. S-Video cables are sold separately and can be purchased at most stores that sell audio/video equipment.
The type of connection you set up between your player and your TV determines the quality of your audio/video experience when you watch video through your player.
The following chart ranks the audio and video resolution for each setup option, assuming that the resolution is not compromised by your Internet connection:

The type of audio and video connections you use to connect your player and your TV may impact sound and picture quality. In general, HDMI is superior to stereo audio and S-Video. Additionally, HDMI and S-Video are all better than composite video. Use your best available option when connecting the audio and video cables to your player.
