Basic connections to the TV
Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and
displays the four basic DTV picture resolution standards.
-
SDTV
(Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i
(480-line interlaced) or 480p (480-line progressive scan)
video.
-
HDTV
(High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the
1080i or 720p formats, always with a widescreen picture.
Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like that you see in a
movie theater. Images are much more distinct, free of flicker
and motion is smoother.
Your TV has an integrated HDTV tuner, which receives and
decodes terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled cable (QAM)
signals and displays them. There are two ways to obtain
HDTV content:
- through a cable provider
- through an antenna.
Note: Use the illustrations on the left for cable or Antenna
connections.
