Note:

If VCR1 has S-video, you can use an S-video cable instead of the standard video cable for better picture performance. Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

Do not connect the same VCR to the output and input jacks on the TV at the same time.

To dub or edit, VCR 2 must select Line IN, and the TV must select VIDEO 1 (see “Selecting the antenna input” on page 21).

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.

*The Video OUT jack does not output the POP picture.

**The Audio OUT jacks can output the sound of either the Main or POP picture (see “Selecting the Audio OUT sound” on page 52).

Note:

If your camcorder has S-video, you can use an S-video cable instead of the standard video cable for better picture performance. Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-video cable at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

30HF83 specifications

The Toshiba 30HF83 is a versatile television model that appeals to viewers seeking quality performance and reliable technology in a compact size. Launched during a time when CRT televisions were phasing out, the 30HF83 blends traditional CRT characteristics with innovative features tailored for enhanced viewing experiences.

One of the standout features of the Toshiba 30HF83 is its 30-inch screen, which offers a comfortable viewing size for small to medium rooms. The television utilizes Toshiba's renowned Aqua tuning system that helps set outstanding image clarity and sharpness. The CRT display delivers vibrant colors and deep blacks, ensuring an enjoyable viewing experience whether you are watching a movie or a daily show.

Additionally, the 30HF83 boasts a 16x9 aspect ratio, allowing for a more cinematic viewing experience. This aspect ratio supports both widescreen content and standard programming, providing flexibility for various types of media. The television also comes equipped with multiple input options, including composite, S-video, and RF connectivity. This versatility allows users to connect external devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles, and VCRs, catering to a variety of entertainment preferences.

In terms of sound performance, the Toshiba 30HF83 integrates a built-in audio system designed to complement its visual capabilities. The TV features stereo sound, which enhances the overall viewing experience by delivering clear audio alongside superior video performance.

One key characteristic of the 30HF83 is its solid build quality and durability, a hallmark of Toshiba products.
