You will need:
one Cable signal splitter
five coaxial cables
two sets of standard A/V cables
• For better picture performance from your VCR: If your VCR has
S-video, connect an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead
of the standard video cable. Do not connect an S-video cable and a
standard video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time
or the picture performance will be unacceptable.
• If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV to your
VCR’s audio out jack using the white audio cable only.
• For better picture performance from your Cable box: If your Cable
box has component video, you can connect component video
cables (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cable
from the Cable box to the ColorStream HD-1 inputs on the TV. You
would then select ColorStream HD-1 as the video input source.*
