If your TV has component video input jacks
Connect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks using a component video cord (not supplied) or three
video cords (not supplied) of the same kind and length. You will enjoy accurate color reproduction and
high quality images.
If your TV accepts progressive 480p format signals, you must use this connection and then set
“Progressive” of “Video” to “On” in the “Setup” display (page 101). The PROGRESSIVE indicator
lights up when the recorder outputs progressive signals.
Make audio connections using the AUDIO OUT L/R jacks when you connect the recorder using this
connection.
When playing “wide screen” images
Some recorded images may not fit your TV screen. To change the aspect ratio, see page 100.
