2. TV Connections 23
A/V Receiver
Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV
channels received on the ANT input or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the
connections shown below. Usually, only one of these
connections is required.
The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog
formats:
Analog audio coming into the TV is available as •
output in digital stereo format on the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT jack.
Digital incoming audio is available as analog output •
on the AVR AUDIO OUTPUT L and R jacks.

Note:
On rare occasions, an HDMI signal may be •
copy-restricted and cannot be output from
the TV as a digital signal. To hear these copy-
protected signals through the A /V receiver, use
the connection for an analog A /V receiver.
Check the A /V receiver’s Owner’s Guide for •
information concerning use of the digital input
and switching between digital sound and
analog stereo sound from the TV.
A/V Receiver with HDMI Output
Required: One HDMI-to-HDMI cable
This option allows you to view content from devices
connected to an A /V receiver over a single HDMI cable
going to the TV. The HDMI cable can transmit both
audio and video to the TV.
You can use an HDMI connection as described here
in addition to an audio connection from the TV’s audio
output. The optional audio connection allows you to
hear, through the A /V receiver, devices connected to
the TV only, e.g., an antenna on the ANT input.
You may be able to use the TV’s remote control (in
TV mode) to operate connected CEC-enabled HDMI
devices. Experiment with your equipment to determine
which functions are available to the TV’s remote control.
See Appendix B, page 75.
153 and 249 Series: This setup allows you to use
NetCommand-controlled audio and video switching over
the HDMI cable. See “Case 3: Automatic Audio and
Video Switching via HDMI” on page 65.
To use NetCommand to supplement HDMI control of a
CEC-enabled A /V receiver, note the recommendations
under “More About Using an HDMI Connection,” page 65.

28 3. Using TV Features TV Signals and Display Formats Signal Definitions 480i: Older type of interlaced signals from the ANT input, composite VIDEO, component Y Pb Pr, or HDMI jacks. 480p: Progressive-scan DVD signals on component Y Pb Pr or HDMI jacks. 720p and 1080i: High-definition signals received through component Y Pb Pr or HDMI jacks. These signals are always 16:9 (widescreen). 1080p: High-definition signals from a PC or Blu-ray player, HDMI inputs only. SD 4:3: Standard-definition squarish-screen-format signals from digital channels on the ANT input. SD 16:9: Standard-definition widescreen-format signals from digital channels on the ANT input. HD 16:9: High-definition 16:9 widescreen signals from digital channels on the ANT input. This is a 16:9 widescreen TV suitable for images available from HDTV and many DVDs. You can view older-style, squar- ish images (4:3 aspect ratio) using one of the display formats described on this page. Press the MORE key and then the 0 key (FORMAT) to cycle through available display formats. The TV remembers the format you last used for each input. DVD Image Definitions Image information may be stated on the DVD case. Some DVDs support both formats described below. Anamorphic (or Enhanced for WideScreen TV). Indicates DVDs recorded to show widescreen images properly on 16:9 TV sets using the TV’s Standard format mode (recommended). Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1.33:1, Letter Box, or Full Screen). Indicates DVDs recorded for viewing on squarish TV screens. They may be full screen (4:3 or 1.33:1) which crops movies to fit the narrow TV, or letter box, which adds black top and bottom bars. TV Display Format Definitions Standard: The full-screen format used by HDTV signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs with a 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio are displayed correctly but with top and bottom black bars. Squarish (4:3) images are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all signals. Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the top and bottom; useful for reducing the letter box top and bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD images. Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars. 480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals:• Eliminates top and bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, and HD signals:• Eliminates bars added to squarish 4:3 images. Stretch: Stretches squarish 4:3 images across the screen to display the entire image with less distortion than Stan- dard. Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distor- tion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off portions of the top and bottom. Use to adjust the vertical position of the picture. Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their original shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen. Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the image on both sides. Removes or reduces black side bars added to narrow images converted to 16:9 signals for digital broadcast. Note: All high-definition channels send widescreen (16:9) signals, but not all programming was created for the widescreen format. The broadcaster may stretch the image or add side bars to fill the widescreen area. Full Native: Displays all pixels in the original image Non-anamorphic or SD 4:3Anamorphic DVD StandardDistorted.
