When using the 8300HDC with an SDTV, you must make one of the following connections to view
content. Some SDTVs may not have all these connections. In addition, you can make connections
to a VCR to archive recordings to a VCR tape. Refer to your TV and VCR user guides and the
cabling diagrams in this guide for more detailed information.
Note: The labeling on your 8300HDC may vary slightly.
Connections for a Standard-Definition TV and VCR
The Y/V PbPr connectors can provide standard-
definition component video signals to an SDTV.
Note: To connect PrPbY/V to an SDTV, you must set
the HD Setup Wizard on the 8300HDC to HD Mode,
and select the output video format (typically 480i) that
will match the capabilities of your SDTV.
The S-Video Out connection provides an optimal video
connection to SDTVs.
