Here is the deal on all Pioneer Media Receivers. 1. They are boxes that have the TV tuner and other interface electronics built in. The Screen that these connect to do not have any of these items. You need the Media Receiver to watch TV, DVD's etc on these display panels. (With exceptions) 2. Certain Media Receivers work only with certain Monitors. For example the Display model number may be PDU-504 or PDU-503 or 4340 or 4350. The last number of the display model (three digit model number) or the second to last number of the model number (if it is a 4 digit number) Should match the last numerical digit of the Media Receiver. Example (PDU-504 is compatible with the R04U Media Receiver, PDU-503 is compatible with the R03U Media receiver) The single exception to this rule is that the R04 and R05 Media receivers are interchangeable they will both work on 504 and 05 Plasma Displays. 3. The Plasma displays that use Media Receivers do not absolutely need a Media Receiver. If you have a PC with a DVI interface card in a PC then you can connect the DVI port directly to the display and as long as the Display is working you will get the image on the screen. Just make sure you set the resolution to 1280 X 720 60hz to start with. You may have to fine tune the settings from there. HDMI users need a HDMI to DVI adaptor for around 20 bucks. The draw back of connecting these displays directly to cable boxes that have HDMI or DVI or PC's directly is that you no longer have control of fine tuning screen size and position. That is only available from the Media Receiver. But in many instances satisfactory results can be achieved without spending really insane prices on Ebay for these units. I used a KDS HD leeza to connect mine up and it works flawlessly. Of course I have to manually turn the plasma display on and off but it is little trade off for having a 3K hd tv for the cost of $300 bucks.
