Introduction  
Welcome to Toshiba  
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest projection TVs on  
the market. The goal of this manual is to guide you through setting up  
and operating your Toshiba TV as quickly as possible.  
This manual applies to models 43H72 and 50H72. Before you start  
reading, check your model number by looking at the rear of the TV.  
Instructions in this manual are based on using the remote control. You  
can also use the controls on the TV if they have the same name as those  
on the remote control.  
Note regarding  
Quick Connect Guide

Guide, either press EXIT or turn off  
the TV.  
Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully, and keep  
the manual for future reference.  
See page 22 for details.

Connecting your TV  
Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.  
Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service,  
Coaxial (antenna) cable  
or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses Fconnectors.  
Standard A/V (audio/video) cables usually come in sets of three, and are  
typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio,  
and white for stereo left (or mono) audio. On your TVs back panel, the standard  
A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.  
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)  
S-video cable  
S-Video cable is for use with video equipment that has an S-Video input.  
Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with video  
equipment that has component video inputs. (ColorStream® is Toshibas brand  
of component video.)  
NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY  
When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:  
Component video cables  
For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.  
For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has an S-video input, use an  
S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. (You still must  
connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection,  
but do not connect the standard yellow video cable at the same time, or the  
picture performance will be unacceptable.)  
CAUTION: Do not plug in any power cords  
until you have finished connecting all equipment.  
For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video inputs,  
use component video cables instead of a standard video or S-video cable.  
(You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system  
connection, but do not connect the standard yellow video cable or an S-Video  
cable at the same time.)  
Connecting a VCR  
This connection allows you to watch local channels and video  
programs, play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and record  
from one channel while watching another channel.  
You will need:  
Note:  
• one coaxial cable  
If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to  
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.  
• one pair of audio cables (one single audio cable for a mono VCR)  
• one video cable (one S-video cable for an S-VHS VCR)  
If you have an S-VHS VCR, use an S-video  
cable (in the S-video jacks) instead of the  
regular video cable.  
From Cable Box or Antenna  
Stereo VCR  
Do not connect a regular video cable and an  
S-video cable to Video-1 at the same time.

Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver  
and a VCR  
This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, and TV  
programs, and record one TV channel while watching another  
channel.  
Note:  
For the highest possible picture quality from a  
non-ColorStream DVD player/satellite  
receiver, you must use an S-video cable  
between the TV and DVD player/satellite  
receiver. (If your DVD player or satellite  
receiver is ColorStream-compatible, see page  
10).  
You will need:  
• one coaxial cable  
• two pairs of audio cables (one single and one pair of audio cables  
for a mono VCR)  
Do not connect both an S-video cable and a  
regular video cable between the TV and DVD  
player/satellite receiver at the same time.  
Doing so will distort the picture.  
• one video cable (between the TV and VCR)  
• one S-video cable (between the TV and DVD player/satellite  
receiver)  
Do not connect the DVD player/satellite  
receiver and VCR to the same video channel  
on the TV. (See the illustrations, which show  
the DVD player/satellite receiver connected to  
Video-1 on the TV and the VCR connected to  
Video-2 on the TV.)

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream®  
(component video) and a VCR  
Note:  
This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, and TV programs,  
and record TV programs.  
For the highest possible picture quality, use  
component video cables between the TV  
and DVD player. You can connect the  
component video cables from the DVD player  
to either ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1 or  
HD2).  
Your TV has ColorStream® (component video) inputs. Connecting  
your TV to a DVD player with component video inputs (such as a  
Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream®) can greatly enhance picture  
quality and realism.  
To record one TV program while watching another TV program,  
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the  
channel to watch.  
The ColorStream HD1 and HD2 jacks can be  
used with Progressive (480p) and Interlace  
(480i,1080i) scan systems.  
If your DVD player does not have component  
video inputs, use the S-video connections  
(plus the standard audio connections) instead  
of the ColorStream connections; however, do  
not connect both S-Video and standard video  
cables between the TV and DVD player at the  
same time.  
To record a TV program while watching a DVD, tune the VCR to  
the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD1 on the TV (see  
“Selecting the antenna input” on page 20).  
You will need:  
• one coaxial cable  
• three pairs of audio cables (two single and one pair of audio cables  
for a mono VCR)  
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution,  
or revision of television programs, videotapes,  
DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under  
the Copyright Laws of the United States and  
other countries, and may subject you to civil  
and criminal liability.  
• two video cables  
• one set of component video cables (one S-video cable for a DVD  
player without component video inputs; see notes at right)

Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with  
ColorStream® (component video) and a VCR  
Note:  
This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV), VCR, and  
TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs.  
For the highest possible picture quality, use  
component video cables between the TV  
and DTV receiver. You can connect the  
component cables from the DTV receiver  
to either ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1  
or HD2).  
Your TV has ColorStream (component video) inputs. Connecting  
your TV to a DTV receiver with component video inputs can greatly  
enhance picture quality and realism.  
To record and watch a DTV program, select LINE IN on the VCR,  
and select ColorStream HD2 (or VIDEO 1 for a non-ColorStream  
connection) on the TV (see “Selecting the antenna input” on  
page 20).  
The ColorStream HD1 and HD2 jacks can be  
used with Progressive (480p) and Interlace  
(480i,1080i) scan systems.  
If your DTV receiver does not have  
component video inputs, use the S-video and  
standard audio connections instead of the  
ColorStream connections. Do not connect  
both an S-video and a standard video cable  
between the TV and DTV receiver at the  
same time.  
To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the  
VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD2 on  
the TV.  
To record and watch the same TV program, tune the VCR to the  
channel to record, and select VIDEO 1 on the TV.  
To record one TV program while watching another TV program,  
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the  
channel to watch.  
To monitor recording, set the TV to VIDEO 1.  
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution,  
or revision of television programs, videotapes,  
DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under  
the Copyright Laws of the United States and  
other countries, and may subject you to civil  
and criminal liability.  
You will need:  
• one coaxial cable  
• three pairs of audio cables (two single and one pair of audio  
cables for a mono VCR)  
• two video cables  
• one set of component video cables (one S-video cable for a DTV  
receiver without component video; see notes at right)

Connecting two VCRs  
This connection allows you to record (dub/edit) from one VCR to  
another VCR while watching a videotape. You can also record from  
one TV channel while watching another TV channel.  
You will need:  
• one coaxial cable  
• two pairs of audio cables (two single audio cables for mono  
VCRs)  
• two video cables (two S-video cables for S-VHS VCRs)

Note:  
If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables  
instead of standard video cables for better  
picture performance. Do not connect both a  
standard video cable and an S-video cable to  
Video-1 (or Video-2) at the same time, or the  
picture performance will be unacceptable.

Using the remote control  
Preparing the remote control for use  
Note:  
Your TVs remote control may not operate  
certain features on your VCR, cable TV  
converter, or other electronic device.  
With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR  
models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different  
brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your  
remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own  
different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program  
your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use  
with a VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 15.)  
Refer to the owners manuals for your other  
devices to determine their available features.  
If your TVs remote control does not operate a  
specific feature on a device, use the remote  
control that came with the device.  
Installing the remote control batteries  
To install the batteries:  
1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.  
Caution:  
Dispose of batteries in a designated  
disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a  
fire.  
Do not mix battery types or combine used  
batteries with new ones.  
If the batteries are dead or if you will not  
use the remote control for a long time,  
remove the batteries to prevent battery acid  
from leaking into the battery compartment.  
2. Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on  
the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.  
Note:  
Battery life expectancy is about one year with  
normal use.  
3. Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the  
lock snaps.  
Using the remote control with a VCR or a cable  
TV converter

Adjusting the color convergence  
This projection TV uses three separate TV tubes: red, green, and blue.  
The red, green, and blue images are projected onto the screen where  
they converge to form a full-color picture. You can see a clear picture  
only when the three images converge correctly. Convergence may drift  
over time or if you move the TV. If you can see clear images on your  
TV screen, skip this procedure.  
This adjustment should be made only after the TV has been on for at  
least 30 minutes.  
Automatically adjusting the color convergence
