Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with S-video, a VCR, and a Cable box

You will need:

￿one signal splitter

￿five coaxial cables

Note: If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCRÕs audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.

￿one S-video cable

￿one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

¥If your DVD player does not have S-video, use a standard video cable instead. Do not connect an S-video cable and a standard video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

¥If your DVD player has component video, see page 17.

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