Connecting a PC to Your BRAVIA TV
Connect your incoming signal source (HD Cable Box, HD Satellite Receiver,
or DVD) with HDMI or component video for the best possible picture quality.
If your connecting equipment has DVI output instead of the HDMI output,
you must use a DVI-to-HDMI cable for the video and also connect an audio
cable for the sound. If this is the case, connect the cable to HDMI IN 4 (input)
of your TV.
P&P/PIP functions require Cable/Antenna connection.
