TV Coaxial RF. This is the connection for standard NTSC TV using antenna or cable.

RGB PC (VGA) - This video input has separate red, green and blue color components. The signal carries horizontal and vertical sync information on the green signal. This is most commonly used for

PC input.

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.

S-Video (AVl) - 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.

Analog TV: Today's TV system using radio frequency waves to transmit and display pictures and sound. Aspect Ratio (4x3): 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 inches wide and 19 inches tall. Aspect Ratio (16x9): "Wide screen TV" aspect ratio which 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. Digital TV (DTV): Television delivered and displayed using radio frequency waves that contain

information that is digitally encoded for improved quality and efficiency. Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV): A better digital television transmission than SDTV with at least 480P,

in a 16x9 or 4x3 display and Dolby digital surround sound. 480P is the quality used by most DVD players. EDTV provides 300-400,000 pixels.
