Note:
If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

If you have a VCR with S-video, use an
S-video cable instead of a standard video
cable.

Do not connect a standard video cable and
an S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at
the same time, or the picture performance
will be unacceptable.

From Cable Box or Antenna

Stereo VCR

TV

Connecting your TV

Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.

Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV
service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses “F” connectors.

Standard A/V (audio/video) cables usually come in sets of three, and
are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for
stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.
On your TV’s back panel, the standard A/V inputs are color-coded in
the same manner as the cables.

S-Video cable is for use with video equipment that has an S-Video input.

Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with
video equipment that has component video inputs. (ColorStream

is

Toshiba’s brand of component video.)

DVI-D digital single-link cable is for use with video equipment that
has a DVI-D digital single-link connector (see page 13).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:

For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.

For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has an S-video
input, use an S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable.
(You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full
system connection, but do not connect the standard yellow video cable at
the same time
, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.)

For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video (or
DVI) inputs, use either component video cables (or a DVI cable) instead
of
a standard video or S-video cable. (You still must connect the standard
red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect
the standard yellow video cable or an S-Video cable at the same time
.)

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution,
or revision of television programs, videotapes,
DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to civil
and criminal liability.
