Component Input

To fully appreciate the increasingly high-resolution of digital media such as DVDs and other devices with component output capability, a component video input terminal is indispensable. In order to display RGB video signals in high-resolution and as faithfully as possible to the original source, these signals are separated into black & white (luminance: Y) and colour (chroma: PB and PR) data. And JVC LCD TVs are designed to automatically change the TV input to EXT-4 whenever a component signal is input to the terminal.

HDMI™ input

HDMI™ input with HDCP allows for noise-free, unaltered, and/or uncompressed transmission of digital content from a compatible device with HDMI or DVI* output. HDMI™ input is capable of receiving 576i, 480i, 576p, 470p, 1080i, and 720p video signals as well as analogue audio signals via a single cable.

T-V LINK

T-V LINK enables the TV to share information — such as TV Auto Power On, Direct Rec, and Preset Download — with compatible devices equipped with the same T-V LINK feature.

Tips on TV Installation

All JVC LCD TVs come supplied with a tabletop stand. LCD TVs can be positioned directly on the floor, on a TV rack, or even hung from a wall. Matching TV racks and a variety of wall-mounting units are sold separately. Click on available options for further details. For wall-mount installations, consult with a qualified technician to ensure proper mounting of the TV.

When installing the TV, it is recommended that ample space be taken between the TV and walls as well as above the unit to avoid the build-up of excessive heat. The illustration shows the minimum space requirements for a LCD TV, regardless of its screen size.
