Video Connection Options
The QIP6xxx offers six different video connection options. Component
video, HDMI, and IEEE 1394 allow you to view both HD and standard TV
programming. Composite video, S-video, and RF coaxial connections
allow you to view standard definition TV programming; HDTV
programming can also be viewed, but it will be converted to standard
format.
To determine whether your TV features component video, DVI/HDMI,
IEEE 1394, S-Video, or composite video, check the manual supplied with
your TV.
Use these guidelines to determine the best video connection for your
home entertainment system, and then refer to the table that follows for
specific procedures that apply to specific setups.
Note: HD video can only be viewed with DVI / HDMI, IEEE 1394, or
component video connections.
•
Component video (YPbPr) – HDTV and SDTV
The YPbPr connectors on your set-top provide HD component
video. Component is the most widely supported HD video
connection.
•
HDMI or IEEE 1394 – Digital HDTV and SDTV
HDMI and IEEE 1394 are digital video interfaces that offer higher
quality HD video than component video.
If your TV has a DVI or HDMI input, connect to the HDMI connector
on the set-top instead of the IEEE 1394 connector. TVs with DVI
ports need an HDMI adapter cable, which can be purchased at
most electronic stores. See “Connecting HDTV – Video Only” for
more information.
•
S-Video – SDTV
If component video connections are not available on your TV, use
the S-V
IDEO connection.
•
Video (also referred to as composite video) – SDTV
If S-Video is not available, use the composite video ( VIDEO )
connection.
