• The S-VIDEO input/output connectors are terminals for the
Y/C (luminance/chrominance) separate video signals.
• If these connectors are connected to a VCR equipped with
S-VIDEO connectors, recording and playback of clearer
video becomes possible by reducing loss in the video sig-
nal.
Useful Tips
S-VIDEO input/output connectors
• The output circuits of the JX-S555 incorporate circuitry for
separating the video signals input through the VIDEO ter-
minals (composite signal) into Y/C (luminance/chrominance)
signals.
This feature is convenient in dubbing from a VCR without S-
VIDEO connectors to a VCR equipped with them or watch-
ing the video from a VCR without S-VIDEO connectors on a
TV equipped with them.

• A VCR not equipped with S-VIDEO connectors should be
connected to the VIDEO terminals, which transmit the sig-
nal obtained by synthesizing the Y/C signals (composite
signal).
• The output circuits of the JX-S555 incorporate circuitry for
mixing the video signals input through the S-VIDEO termi-
nals (separate signals) into a composite video signal.
This feature is convenient in dubbing from a VCR equipped
with S-VIDEO terminals to a VCR without them.
