Video Equipment Connection Overview
Standard video equipment has one or more of the
following video out connectors and cables:
Coaxial (RF)
Composite
S-video
The type of video cable you need depends on
your video equipment:
If your video equipment has an S-video jack, you
need an S-video cable. An S-video cable provides
separate color and black-and-white image signals
and delivers a sharper image than a composite
video cable does.
If your video equipment has a composite video jack,
you need a composite video cable.
You may need other or additional cables, depending on
your video equipment.
You can also connect your digital video camera to
work with the HP Digital Entertainment Center
through FireWire (IEEE 1394) connectors.
DVD player
The HP Digital Entertainment Center has a built-in
DVD player/recorder.
n
If your video equipment has multiple input
and output connections, then it has front
panel input and output switches.
You must select the correct input and output
from the video equipment front panel or
remote control to hear sound and see video.
