HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) - It is the first and only industry-supported, uncompressed, alldigital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable.
DTV Coaxial RF. When used for MPEG2 encoded bit streams from ATSC broadcast programming, this input takes advantage of the High Definition content.

TV Coaxial RF. This is the connection for standard
NTSC TV using antenna or cable.
RGB PC (VGA) – This video input has separate red, green and blue color components. The signal carries horizontal and vertical sync information on the green signal. This is most commonly used for
PC input.
Component 1/2 - The video signal is separated into three signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other two containing the color information. This enhancement over S-Video takes advantage of the superior picture provided by progressive scan DVD players and HDTV formats.
S-Video (AV1/AV2) - The video signal is separated into two signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other containing the color information. Separating the color in this way avoids
‘cross color’ effects where closely spaced black and white lines are erroneously displayed in color. It also enables text to be displayed more sharply.

Viewing Modes
Normal Mode
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a 4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9
(widescreen), and then modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3).
Wide Mode
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode, the display image is stretched proportionately to fill the TV screen.
When watching a widescreen (1.78:1 source) program or movie, the display image fills the TV screen. If you are watching a widescreen
(1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still be black bars at the top and bottom.
Zoom Mode
When watching a widescreen (1.78:1, 1.85:1, or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, the display image is zoomed proportionally to fill the width of the screen. The top and bottom are cut off to remove most of the source material’s black bars. This mode is good for programs or movies with sub-titles.
Panoramic Mode
When watching a standard broadcast or full frame movie in this mode, the 4:3 Aspect Ratio (1.33:1 source) display image is stretched horizontally on the left and right sides to fill the TV screen. The center of the image is not stretched.
Note: Viewing modes and volume settings are saved based on input. For example, you lasted watched a DVD in widescreen mode and then watched TV in standard mode. When you switch back to DVD input, the viewing mode will return to widescreen.

Tips for High-Definition Users. The Plasma TV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.
Best Image Quality will be achieved by the HDMI, Component (YPbPr), DVI or
RGB. However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur.
Tips for Letterbox Content Users. Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for standard 4:3 Televisions. The Plasma TV has the capability of expanding this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function, press the “ZOOM” key on the remote control and cycle among the available options.

Glossary – Standard Definitions
Analog TV: Today’s TV system using radio frequency waves to transmit and display pictures and sound.
Aspect Ratio (4x3): Traditional TV “aspect ratio”, that is, the screen’s width as compared to its height.
For example, a “32 inch TV screen” would be 25 inches wide and 19 inches tall.
Aspect Ratio (16x9): “Wide screen TV” aspect ratio which is more like a movie screen than a traditional
TV. For example, a “32 inch TV screen” would be 28 inches wide and 16 inches tall.
Digital TV (DTV): Television delivered and displayed using radio frequency waves that contain information that is digitally encoded for improved quality and efficiency.
Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV): A better digital television transmission than SDTV with at least 480P, in a 16x9 or 4x3 display and Dolby digital surround sound. 480P is the quality used by most DVD players.
EDTV provides 300-400,000 pixels.
HDTV Monitor (sometimes called HDTV Ready): A set that can display HDTV programming if you have a separate HDTV tuner, HD Cable Set-Top Box or HD Satellite Set-Top-Box Receiver.
HDTV Tuner (also decoder, receiver, set-top box): A device capable of receiving and outputting HDTV signals for display. It may be stand-alone or integrated in the set.
High-Definition Television (HDTV): The best quality picture, wide screen (16x9) display with at least
720 progressively scanned lines (720P) or 1080 interlaced lines (1080i) and Dolby digital surround sound.
HDTV provides 900,000-2.1 million pixels.
Integrated HDTV: An HDTV that has the digital tuner built into the set. It does not need a separate settop box to receive over-the-air DTV signals.
Interlace Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the odd lines first, then filling the in the even lines (this happens instantaneously).
Plug-and-Play or Digital Cable Ready: A DTV or other device for digital cable consumers that plugs directly into the cable jack and does not require a separate set-top box. Plug-and-Play TV owners must obtain a CableCARD from their cable company in order to view scrambled programming services.
Progressive Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the lines consecutively
(progressively).
Standard Definition TV (SDTV): Basic digital television transmission that may be displayed with fewer than 480 progressively scanned lines (480P) in 16 x 9 or 4 x 3 format. 480 interlaced (480i) is the quality of today’s analog TV system.
Source: Buying a Digital Television, CEA, HDTV Guide, 2005
Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) and the Consumer Electronics Retailers Coalition (CERC) have made a new tip sheet available for digital television (DTV) retailers to reproduce and distribute to consumers on the sales floor. The file may be downloaded online at www.dtv.gov
. While you’re there, check out the other useful information in the FCC is making available to consumers interested in learning more about the analog to digital transition.
