Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Connection This television is capable of displaying 1080i and 480p DTV signals when connected to a DTV Tuner set-top-box (STB). In order to view DTV programming, the STB must be connected to the component video inputs (Y, P B, PR) of the television. A DTV signal must be available in your area. Select the output of the STB to either 1080i or 480p. This television also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which de-interlaces the NTSC signal and progressively scans the image. This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated with interlaced TV pictures. Use this diagram to connect the Panasonic DTV-STB (Digital TV-Set-Top Box) or DVD Player to the back of your TV. Note:There are 2 sets of three video inputs, Y, PB, and PR. Separate component color inputs provide luminance and color separation. Use the L (left) and R (right) audio inputs.
