Recording

This section explains how to record the selected input source to a component with recording capability, and how to record audio and video from different sources.

Connecting a Recording Component

3 On the source component, start playback.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you select another input source during recording,

 

 

 

 

that input source will be recorded.

 

 

 

 

Recording Separate AV Sources

 

 

 

 

Here you can record audio and video from completely

 

 

 

 

separate sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your

 

 

 

 

video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact

 

 

 

 

that when an audio-only input source (TV/CD) is selected,

the video input source remains unchanged.

Note

• The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s in Standby mode.

• If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver, con- nect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals sup- plied with your TV and VCR for details.

• Video signals connected to composite video inputs can be recorded only via composite video outputs. If your TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR must be connected to a composite video output.

• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

• Copy-protected Blu-ray discs and DVDs cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

•DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

• While the listening mode is set to Pure Audio, no image is pro-
