OPERATION
Recording
Two-channel analog and digital audio signals, as well as composite
and S-video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording
outputs. Thus, to make a recording, you need only make sure to con-
nect your audio or video recorder to the appropriate output jacks, as
described in the Installation section, insert blank media and make sure
the recorder is turned on and recording while the source is playing.
NOTES:
1. Analog audio signals are not converted to digital form, and
digital audio signals are not converted to analog audio form.
However, you may record a coaxial or optical digital audio
source using either type of digital audio output.
2. Only PCM digital audio signals are available for recording.
Proprietary formats such as Dolby Digital and DTS may not
be recorded using the digital audio connections, although if
the source is connected to the AVR using the analog audio
connections, an analog recording may be made.
3. Component video sources are not available for recording.
4. Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright
restrictions on any material you record. Unauthorized duplica-
tion of copyrighted materials is prohibited by federal law.
Using
The Bridge is an optional dock that may be used with a compatible iPod
(not included). When The Bridge is connected to its proprietary input on
the AVR 245 and the iPod is docked, you may play the audio materials
on your iPod through your high-quality audio system, operate the iPod
using the AVR remote or the AVR’s front-panel controls, view navigation
messages on the AVR’s front panel or a connected video display, and
charge the iPod.
Either press the front-panel Source Selector repeatedly until the mes-
sage “DMP/The Bridge is CONNECTED” scrolls across the front panel
and semi-OSD displays, or press the DMP Button on the remote to
select The Bridge as the input source.
