3.2 Direct Connection to a TV
Video + Audio - for HDMI equipped HDTVs
HDMI is the highest quality video output from Magic TV™. It can also carry multi-channel audio, which conveniently reduces cabling.
Simply connect the HDMI output from Magic TV™ directly to one of your TV's HDMI inputs.
Video - for HDTVs without HDMI
In order to get High Definition video from Magic TV™ without HDMI, Component (YPbPr) must be used. Simply connect the Component output
from Magic TV™ directly to one of your TV’s Component inputs. Component doesn't carry audio, so a separate connection is needed. See below.

3.1 Power and Aerial/Antenna Connections
Power + Antenna
Insert the power cord into a suitable power outlet and the 12v DC plug into Magic TV™. Leave the power outlet switched off or unplugged until all the
wiring work has been completed. Then connect Magic TV™ to your antenna using the Ant. In connector. A roof-mounted antenna is recommended for
best reception. For information on monitoring your signal quality, see section 7.5.
Optional - Antenna loopthrough
If you want to retain analogue TV reception on your television or on any other devices with a TV tuner (VCR or DVD recorder for example), connect the
included extension cable to the Loop Out connector of Magic TV™ and to the Antenna In on your other device. Many devices can form part of the
antenna loop, by chaining together the Antenna Outs to Antenna Ins on each device.
We recommend using Magic TV™ as the first component on the chain and your television as the last.
