Video connections
The next step is to figure out what type of connectors/output the equip-
ment you want to connect has. If there is more than one output, select the
one with the highest quality. Component video has the best quality, fol-
lowed by S-video, then composite video.
If you are connecting the projector to HDTV, the projector’s computer con-
nector should be used.
Keep in mind that HDTV and progressive sources can only be handled
through the projector’s VGA connector. The Component to S-video adapter
does not function with progressive sources. With progressive sources, the
Component video connector requires Breakout cables purchased from a
third-party.
NOTE: S-video cables are not included with the InFocus X1 projector. You
can purchase this accessory separately. See page 39 for a list of accessories
you can purchase for this projector.
Here is a list of possible input signals and the connectors they should be
