Connecting Your DVD Player
You have several options for connecting your DVD player to your VP50HDTV – HDMI, Component, S-
Video and Composite (AV) inputs. Based on your home theater configuration, you can decide which
option is the right one for you.
2.4.1
Using HDMI
DVD players that have a digital interface such as HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) should be
connected to the HDMI input of the VIZIO VP50HDTV for optimal results.
Connecting your DVD Player (Best):
1.
Turn off the power to the Plasma TV and DVD player.
2.
Connect one end of a HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your DVD player and the
other end to the HDMI 1 Input (white color area) at the rear of the Plasma TV.
3.
Turn on the power to the Plasma TV and your DVD player.
4.
Select HDMI 1 using the INPUT button on the remote or
side of the Plasma TV, or directly by pressing the HDMI
button on the Remote Control.
Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable available up to 10 meters or less.
