• Make either an S-video or a Composite connection from your external equipment to the
media center, depending on the type of Video output jacks your component provides.
Refer to "Cable or Satellite box options" on page 28 for an example of these choices.
• Connect the video output from any other video devices directly to the TV (assuming there
are multiple Video input jacks on its back panel). Use the cable provided with that device.
Better yet, consider a component video connection

To use the LIFESTYLE
system's progressive scan feature, you must use a component con-
nection between the media center and the TV.
If your TV supports it, this is the very best choice for both higher definition and more brilliant
color. And the supplied Component video adapter is designed to enable the media center to
send three separate video signals (Y, Pr, and Pb) to the component jacks on your TV.
Note: For progressive scan to work, you need to select this feature on the media center after
making this type of connection. Also set your TV for progressive scan, following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
Check first, to be sure that your TV has component Video in jacks, as shown in Figure 23.

To make the connections:
If your equipment provides this option, use one of the two Component video adapters pro-
vided with your system (Figure 23) and follow these steps.
1. Connect one end of the adapter to the media center.
• Plug the two-connector end into the two Video OUT jacks on the right side of the media
center connection panel.
• Match each of the two connectors, as appropriate, to S-video or Composite jacks.
2. Connect the free end of the adapter to video-grade cables (with RCA connectors).
3. Connect the three video cables to the Y, Pb, and Pr jacks on your TV.
• Be sure to maintain consistency of the color-coding as you connect the Component
video adapter to video cables and then to the colored jacks on the TV.
Note: For full diagram featuring Component connections, refer to "Component video connec-
tions as an option" on page 29
Video connections for other equipment
There is a second supplied component video adapter for optional use. You can use it to
connect another video component (in addition to your TV) to your LIFESTYLE
In fact, this is the only choice if you used a component connection for your TV. Using S-video
or Composite to connect the second component to the media center does allow the video
signal to pass through to your TV.
You can connect any additional video equipment with component output jacks directly to
your TV.
Note: For more information, or to purchase the video cables, contact your local electronics store
