How to Connect Startimes Decoder to TV Through The AV Port.

The Audio Video Port (AV) port is about the simplest way to connect your startimes decoder to a television. Be aware that the AV port brings out analogue signal from the decoder. The name of the signal is CVBS which stands stands for Composite Video Baseband Signal.

The most useful functionality of the AV or CVBS Port is to connect your decoder to your Tv.

AV is the main port that transmits quality TV decoders to other equipment, including TV sets.

Take the following steps to connect your Startimes decoder to Tv;

• Take the Mini Jack end of your AV cable and connect to the Port labelled 6 in the Image above.
• Then connect the other end of the Cable to your television.
• Be sure to observe the colour codes on the Cable and ensure that the cable is connected to the correct Port.
• Yellow end of the Cable goes to the yellow port of the tv (that’s the Port that carries the video.)

How to Connect the Startimes Decoder to TV through the HDMI Port

The High Definition Media interface (HDMI) port allows you to get clear video signals from the decoder to the tv. The signal from this port is digital and therefore is clearer than the signal from the AV port.

Clear Signals go to TV sets directly from this port. Ensure that your Tv set has a HDMI port before you consider this option.

The HDMI port of the Decoder is labelled 8 in fig 1 above.

Can I use HDMI and AV at Same Time?

You can use both at the same time. Wondering what RCA means? RCA is the professional name of the connector we call AV . RCA stands for Radio Corporation of America.

So if for any reason you may want to use both ports at the same, either for two Televisions or on the same television, it’s completely possible.
