How to Connect: TV + VCR + DVD Player

Connect G-LINK Cable (see page 23)

1.Connect your cable or off-air signal to ANTENNA A.

If you have cable and an off-air antenna, connect the cable signal to ANTENNA A INPUT (antenna A is the only source for the GUIDE Plus+ system). Connect the off-air antenna to ANTENNA B INPUT. If you have only an off-air antenna, connect it to ANTENNA A INPUT.

2.Connect your DVD Player to your TV.

Connect the DVD player’s component (Y PB PR) and audio outputs to INPUT 3 on the TV using component cables. If your DVD player has composite audio/video and an S-Video output, use INPUTs 1 or 2 and use the S-VIDEO jack instead of the VIDEO jack.

Notes: If you are using an S-Video cable (INPUT 1 or 2) or component video cables, you must also use audio cables. The S-Video cable and component video cables only transfer video information.

If your DVD player has a component video output, we recommend you use the component video input on the TV instead of the composite video or S-Video connection. Don’t forget to also connect audio cables when using the component video cables.

3.Connect your VCR to your TV.

A.Connect the VCR’s audio/video outputs to INPUT 1 (audio/video) on the TV using composite audio/video cables.

B.Connect the VCR’s audio/video inputs to RECORD OUTPUT on the TV. This enables recording of digital programs (unless copy protected, using DVI HDTV or component video formats), as well as analog programs.

Viewing the Components

1.Turn on the TV and the component(s) you want to view.

2.Press the TV button on the remote control.

3.Press the INPUT button on the remote control to scroll through the Video Input Channels.

•The VCR can be viewed on the INPUT 1 channel.

•The DVD player can be viewed on the INPUT 3 channel.

Note: You can set up the TV to automatically tune to the correct Video Input Channel. This is called Auto Tuning. (See Chapter 3 for more information.)

It typically comes equipped with multiple HDMI ports and component inputs, allowing users to connect a range of devices such as gaming consoles, DVD players, and streaming devices. The inclusion of a built-in tuner means that users can access over-the-air broadcasts without the need for an additional set-top box, making it convenient for cord-cutters.

In terms of sound, the RCA HDLP50W151 incorporates a robust audio system that enhances the overall experience. Enhanced audio features work to produce clear dialogue and dynamic sound effects, complementing the high-quality visuals.
