Option E: DVD/VCR + TV + RF Modulator

If your TV does not have AV inputs but only single Antenna input jack, you will need to buy an RF modulator (not provided). Refer to below for connection details. With this connection, set your TV to channel 3 or 4 in order to view images from the RCA DVD/VCR recorder.

due to the separation of the video signal into three separate components. To obtain the best image quality possible, use very high quality cables for connections. Your dealer can provide YUV cables that are sold together and come in the standard colour codes (red, green and blue) used for these types of sockets and cables.

There are several ways in which you can incorporate your unit into an Audio-Video system. This depends on the sockets and other appliances you have. Sound and image quality depend to a large extent on the types of connections used.

1.Coaxial audio output (digital sound)

The digital sound of a DVD video disc when played is permanently available on the coaxial socket of your unit. Use this socket by connecting it to a decoder or Dolby Digital amplifier.

2.Component video outputs (Y, Pb, Pr) (YUV)

The Y, Pb, Pr sockets deliver an optimum image quality

If you use the Component sockets Y, Pb, Pr (also called YUV), you must configure the output video signal so that these sockets deliver either an interlaced YUV signal (component interlaced) or a progressive PS signal (component progressive) by pressing VIDEO OUT on the remote control. Do not forget to also connect the audio cables, because Component cables only transmit images, and not sound.

3.S-Video output

The S-Video jack provides better picture quality than a video jack (sometimes labeled VIDEO and color-coded yellow on TVs) because S-Video keeps the color part of the picture separate from the black and white part of the picture. An S-Video cable is required for connection with a TV.

Remember to connect the left and right audio cables or coaxial audio cable because S-Video cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.
