The Fyre BoXXX has 2 types of video outputs, analog and digital.

On the back of the Fyre BoXXX there are 3 different types of video connections. You will need to decide which video connection your television supports. FyreTV recommends the HDMI connection for best audio & video quality. (the below output types are listed from best to good)

Digital output:
HDMI

Analog output:
Component also known as RGB or red, green, blue
S video
Composite also known as RCA or red, white, yellowHDMI Connection: Transfers both audio and video in one cable in full high definition and surround sound. This is the best choice in regards to quality and cable clutter.

Component Connection: If you choose to use the component cables (red, green, blue) which are not included with the FyreTV equipment, you will still need to plug something in for an audio connection. The three component video cables (red, green, blue) only carry video, not audio. You will most likely use the red and white composite connection cables (included) or the fiber optic connection for an audio connection.

S-video connection (cable not included): is similar to the composite video connection in regards to its technical aspects but looks different physically. It only carries a video signal so you will need to use the red and white composite connections for audio or the fiber optic connection for audio.

Note: The Fyre BoXXX has the user interface cached on the set-top-box. This means that you should be able to see the Enter PIN screen regardless if you have an internet connection. If you cannot see the ENTER PIN screen, you will need to try a different audio visual (A/V) connection and / or connect the set-top-box up to a different television. No internet connection is needed to test whether the set-top-box is transmitting an audio / visual signal.

You will need to look at the back of your TV (some TV’s have A/V connections in the front which are usually a RCA (red / yellow / white) connection) to determine which A/V connection is best for you. Once all of the A/V connections have been made, you will need to set the TV to the correct video input.

On most TVs, the video input which is sometimes labeled as “input” or “TV/Video” can be on the TV remote or the control panel located on the front of the TV. You will need to change to the input that corresponds with the input that you are using on the back of the TV, which should be labeled something like "Video 1" or “Video 2”. On the TV, you will need to switch the input to the corresponding video to see the Enter Pin screen of the Fyre BoXXX.
