Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, and TV programs, and record one TV channel while watching another channel.

You will need:

¥two (or three, if satellite receiver is used) coaxial cables

¥one set of standard A/V cables (between the TV and VCR) (plus one additional set of standard A/V cables if satellite receiver is used)

¥one S-video cable (between the TV and DVD player/satellite receiver)

¥one pair of standard audio cables (between the TV and DVD player/satellite receiver)

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality from a DVD player or satellite receiver without component video or HDMI, use an S-video cable. (If your DVD player has component video, see page 12. If your DVD player or satellite receiver has HDMI or DVI, see page 15.)

Do not connect the DVD player/satellite receiver and VCR to the same set of Video inputs on the TV. (See the illustration, which shows the DVD player/satellite receiver connected to VIDEO 1 on the TV, and the VCR connected to VIDEO 2 on the TV.)
