TV screen and video

The television has a Scart terminal

and component video input terminal.

Which terminal should I connect with?

≥If you have a regular television (CRT: cathode ray tube) we recommend using

the Scart terminal. You can enjoy high-quality RGB video from this unit by

connecting to an RGB compatible television.

If you have an LCD/plasma television or LCD projector compatible with

progressive scan, connect through the component video terminals for high-

quality progressive video.

If you have a CRT television or a multi system television using PAL mode that

is compatible with progressive scan, we cannot recommend progressive

output as some flickering can occur.
