composite video. When connecting your device with S-Video, plug the
S-Video cable to the S-Video connector on the side of the TV. You must
connect a separate Audio L/R cable from the device to the red and
white Audio L/R in/out connectors on the side of the TV.

8.2 Select your connection quality
This section describes how you can enhance your audio visual
experience by connecting your devices with the best possible
connectors.
HDMI - Highest quality
HDMI produces the best audio visual quality possible. Both audio
and video signals are combined in one HDMI cable, providing an
uncompressed, digital interface between your TV and HDMI devices.
You must use HDMI to experience full high definition video. You must
also use HDMI cables to use Philips EasyLink as described in Use Philips
EasyLink on page 24 .
Use only a certified HDMI cable.
Tip E
If your device only has a DVI connector, use a DVI-HDMI adaptor to
connect your device to a HDMI connector on the TV. As such a con-
nection does not support sound, you must connect a separate audio
cable from the device to the Audio L/R input connectors on the TV.
D Note
Philips HDMI supports High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection
(HDCP). HDCP is a form of Digital Rights Management that
protects high defi nition content in DVD or Blu-ray discs.
Component (YPbPr) - High quality
Component (Y Pb Pr) video provides better picture quality than
S-Video or composite video connections. Though component video
supports high definition signals, picture quality is lower than HDMI and
is analog.
When connecting a component video cable, match the cable colors to
the connectors on the back of the TV. Also, connect an Audio L/R cable
to the red and white Audio L/R input connectors.
