Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, or TV programs, and record from the satellite receiver or TV. You can record one TV program while watching another TV program.

You will need:

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

one set of standard A/V cables

one S-video cable

one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality

from a DVD player/satellite receiver that

does not have component video

connections, use an S-video cable (plus the

standard audio cables) between the TV

and DVD player/satellite receiver. If your

DVD player (or satellite receiver) has

component video, see “Connecting a

DVD player with component video and a

VCR” on page 10.

Do not connect both an S-video cable and

a standard video cable to VIDEO-1 on the
