composite video jacks, such as a VCR.

• R AUDIO Provides right audio connection when using the
VIDEO INPUT 1 jack. The right audio connector is usually red.
COMPONENT INPUTS Lets you connect a device that has
component video jacks, such as a satellite receiver.

devices.

second HDMI connection.
• PC/HDMI AUDIO (used for DVI only) Provides audio
connection when using the HDMI jack for DVI. Use a 3.5 mm
