Chapter 2 - Connecting Components

2.1 - Which Video Connection Should I Use?

The VIZIO L30e LCD TV has five different ways to connect your video equipment from a basic one to the most advanced for digital displays.

Connection

Cable and Connector Description

Quality

Coaxial RF. This is the only connection that has the audio and the video in one cable. If you have an antenna, this is the only way you can connect it to the LCD TV. If you have a VCR, you can connect your antenna/cable to the VCR RF Input and connect the VCR RF Output to this

Basic

connector.

Composite. The complete video signal is carried through this single pin connector. This is the most commonly used video connection.

Good

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.

Better

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.

Best Digital Video (DVI). All of the picture information is

received digitally coded and it does not convert the signal from digital to analog. The other inputs are converted from analog to digital by the LCD TV. Movies are digitally encoded on DVD’s and so by using a component such as the BRAVO D2 DVI Enabled DVD Player from VIZIO with a DVI output, it will produce the ultimate picture performance.

Tips for High-Definition Users The LCD TV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition

Tips for Letterbox Content Users

Check your antenna connection. Check TV / CATV selection. Make sure the video cable supplied with the LCD display is tightly secured to the video output port on the back of the computer. If the other end of the video cable is not attached permanently to the LCD display, tightly secure it to the LCD display. Adjust brightness and contrast. If you are using a Macintosh older than G3, you will need a Macintosh adapter. Check Source settings. If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is securely connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable connector could cause an improper connection. Connect the LCD display to another computer. In the unlikely occurrence, Via unplug/plug-in the AC power cord to reset the monitor.

Batteries could be weak. Use the "Channel EDIT" function to "DELETE" duplicate or unwanted channels from the database of active channels.

TV: For best image quality, “Standard Definition” TV should be viewed as 4:3. COMPONENT 480i: For best image quality the “YCbCr” Input should be used.

Content. Best Image Quality will be achieved by the DVI Input, then YPbPr, then RGB. For 720p usage, there is a special “1:1” mode which allows the content to be displayed in its “TRUE” form as broadcast. However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur. To use this mode while viewing 720p content, press the “WIDE” key on the remote control and select “1:1”. Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for standard 4:3 Televisions. The LCD TV has the capability of expanding this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function, press the “WIDE” key on the remote control and cycle among the available options.

Appendix A: Glossary - Standard Definitions

Analog TV: Today’s TV system using radio frequency waves to transmit and display pictures and sound.

Digital TV (DTV): Television delivered and displayed using radio frequency waves that contain information that is digitally encoded for improved quality and efficiency.

Standard Definition TV (SDTV): Basic digital television transmission that may be displayed with fewer than 480 progressively scanned lines (480p) in 16 x 9 or 4 x 3 format. 480 interlaced (480i) is the quality of today’s analog TV system. SDTV provides 150-300,000 pixels.

Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV): A better digital television transmission than SDTV with at least 480p, in a 16 x 9 or 4 x 3 display and Dolby digital surround sound. 480p is the quality used by most DVD players. EDTV provides 300-400,000 pixels.

High-Definition Television (HDTV): The best quality digital picture, widescreen (16 x 9) display with at least 720 progressively scanned lines (720p) or 1080 interlaced lines (1080i) and Dolby digital surround sound. HDTV provides 900,000-2.1 million pixels.

HDTV Monitor (sometimes called HDTV Ready): A set that can display HDTV programming if you have a separate HDTV tuner, HD Cable Set-Top Box or HD Satellite Set-Top-Box Receiver.

HDTV Tuner (also decoder, receiver, set-top box): A device capable of receiving and outputting HDTV signals for display. It may be stand-alone or integrated in the set.

Integrated HDTV: An HDTV that has the digital tuner built into the set. It does not need a separate set-top box to receive over-the-air DTV signals.

Plug-and-Play or Digital Cable Ready: A DTV or other device for digital cable customers that plugs directly into the cable jack and does not require a separate set-top box. Plug and Play TV owners must obtain a CableCARD from their cable company in order to view scrambled programming services.

Interlace Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the odd lines first, then filling in the even lines (this happens instantaneously).

Progressive Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the lines consecutively (progressively).

Aspect ratio (4 X 3): Traditional TV “aspect ratio,” that is, the screen’s width as compared to its height. For example, a “32 inch TV screen” would be 25 ½ inches wide and 19 inches tall.

Aspect ratio (16 X 9): “Widescreen” TV” aspect ratio” that is more like a movie screen than a traditional TV. For example, a “32 inch TV screen” would be 28 inches wide and 16 inches tall.

Source: Buying a Digital Television, CEA, HDTV Guide, 2005 Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) and

the Consumer Electronics Retailers Coalition (CERC) have made a new tip sheet available for digital television (DTV) retailers to reproduce and distribute to consumers on the sales floor. The file may be downloaded online at www.dtv.gov. While you’re there, check out the other useful information the FCC is making available to consumers interested in learning more about the analog to digital transition.
