How to connect the Tricolor TV receiver to the TV: description, instructions

The AV connector is still the most common type of connection, although it is gradually being replaced by more modern options like HDMI. But so far, there is an AV connector on almost every TV receiver and receivers from satellite operators, including Tricolor.

The S-Video connector is used on more modern devices for video signal transmission. Outwardly, it resembles a port used in system units for connecting a mouse and keyboard.

SCART is a European standard that allows both audio and video signals to be transmitted through a single connector. At the same time, the quality of video transmission is comparable to that obtained when using the S-Video connector. The cable is quite thick, with a rectangular connector and 21 pins inside. To connect such a cable, it is enough to connect it to the corresponding connectors on the satellite receiver and TV.

To transmit the video signal in the highest quality, up to 1080i, a Y Pb Pr component cable is used. At the end of the cord is a set of cables, transmitting a signal corresponding to their color: green, red and blue for video, and red and white for sound propagation signals.

In order to connect the TV and the receiver yourself using a component cable, it is enough to connect the cables with the necessary connectors on both sides, in accordance with the instructions, without confusing anything.

HDMI is a modern video and audio signal transmission format. The main advantage is the absence of additional decoding during signal transmission. The video gets to the TV without loss of quality when passing from the receiver.

If this type of connection is supported by the TV and receiver, then it is best to use this option. It allows you to transfer the image in high HD quality.
