Connecting a DVD Player

 

 

 

To connect recording components, such as cassette deck, MD recorder and CD recorder, use an analog audio cable to connect the receiver’s TAPE IN L/R jacks to the cassette deck’s analog audio output jacks, and use another analog audio cable to connect the receiver’s TAPE OUT L/R jacks to the cassette deck’s analog audio input jacks, as shown.

Use an analog audio cable to connect the DVD IN L/R jacks to the analog audio output jacks on the DVD player, and use a video cable to connect the DVD IN V jack to the composite video output jack on the DVD player.

Then, connect the MONITOR OUT jack to a composite video input jack on the TV.

You can select the video and sound from the DVD player simultaneously by pressing the DVD input selector button.
