Are all cables needed to connect tv included? Can I use component cables instead of hd?

I had the cable company come out to connect the TV so I'm not sure what cables are involved. I will tell you, however, it's a fabulous TV and you'll love it. Sorry I couldn't be more definitive in my answers but did you contact the Philips conpany and ask them or better yet, try their website. bkwright

Most TV's will only include the basic cables (power only), there is component in (one set of connectors) on the back of the LED. You would have to buy HDMI cables and anything else you need. You can find out more about the TV on the Philips website (user manuals) at http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/29PFL4508_F7/4000-series-led-lcd-tv/support/.

I first connected with an rf cable, then switched to a $3 3-ft long HDMI cable. MIGHT have seen a minor improvement in picture on hi-def channels, but not enough to worry about. NO cable connectors are included

Hdmi cable is enough. If component way of connection , you will need all 3 color connections ( those wire already provided part of package). Hope it helps.

No HDMI needed. Just use composite(red,white,yellow)good quality or component (red,green, blue plus red,white audio ) better video quality, hookup.

I used the HDMI for output to the TV. I believe you can use coax as well, but if you are HD capable I would go with the HDMI cable.

It is true that component cables or an HDMI cable help with video quality, however, you'll not need (or even be able to use) these cables to connect your basic cable incoming signal. If you subscribe to a premium cable service such as "digital cable" then you'll also have a cable box (decoder) which would offer you the option to use component or HDMI cables to connect your cable service to your TV. Otherwise, it isn't even an option.Should you also choose to connect your DVD/VCR/computer to your TV then the comments posted here by other posters would be relevent--that being that you could use component or HDMI cables to connect THOSE devices to your TV with a resultant improvement in your video quality.Al It is true that component cables or an HDMI cable help with video quality, however, you'll not need (or even be able to use) these cables to connect your basic cable incoming signal.

Don't know about the TV but you can connect cable directly to it. That's what I did

The TV has all the standard inputs. So connecting to cable should not be a problem.

Yes '2' HDMI and 'one' USB as well an 'S' video, 'VGA' and 'PC line in', a small headphone jack, others for audio etc.The only time I tried an 'S' video connection on another TV I was disappointed in the design-too loose. I have not tried the one on this tv.

Not sure I am understanding the question. You can purchase HDMI cables or the red/yellow/white component cables and hook up to your cable/tv system. Did you get directions/manual with the TV? There is usually a quick set up guide.

Dear friend. Yes you need cable. It is a very complicate installation because, that particular TV Turner was discontinue.

An HDMI cable is not included, but yes, an HDMI cable is exactly what you'd connect to the female port.

You don't need a HDTV or HDMI TV even though it works on these TVs as well. Make sure that your TV has audio and video (1 yellow for video and 1 white for left audio and 1 red for right audio) composite AV inputs. Just align the colored cables with these 3 jacks. It's very simple.I also have an HDTV in which you have to plug in the HDMI cable to the HDMI port. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00979QONC/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1418877255&sr;=8-2π=AC_SY200_QL40Both of these devices work perfectly.

The only cable you will need to purchase is an HDMI cable! Everything else is included. :)

No you don't need a HDTV. It will work on any TV that has composite(Yellow, Red & White) inputs.

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking but I'll try to answer. You will need to separately purchase a set of component cables to go from the capture device to your TV as it does not come with those. Also your TV with need a place to insert component cables. Those are the blue green and red ones.
