Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver
and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, or TV
programs. You can record from the DVD player/satellite receiver or
TV. You can also record one TV channel while watching another
channel.
Note: If your DVD player has component video connections, follow
the connection instructions under “Connecting a DVD player with
ColorStream

(component video) and a VCR” on page 10.

You will need:

• three coaxial cables (one or more may be supplied by the cable

company)

• three pairs of audio cables (one pair and two single audio cables

for a mono VCR)

• two regular video cables
• one S-video cable

Note:
You can use a regular video cable instead of
an S-video cable between the TV and DVD
player/satellite receiver, but the picture quality
will decrease.

The illustration at left shows one S-video
cable and one pair of audio cables connected
from the DVD player/satellite receiver to
Video-1 on the TV.

Do not connect a regular video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time. Doing so will distort the picture.

When recording, set Audio Out to FIX
(see “Selecting variable audio OUT”
on page 35). With Audio Out set to
FIX, the TV’s volume setting during
recording will not affect the sound
level being recorded.

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.
