Note: For additional hookups and operation information, refer to the owner’s manuals for the devices you are connecting to the DIRECTV Receiver.
1.Connect the outputs of your other devices (such as a DVD player or VCR) to the corresponding VIDEO and AUDIO LEFT/RIGHT inputs (IN1 or IN2) of the A/V Matrix on the rear of the DIRECTV Receiver.
2.To record satellite programming, connect the VIDEO and AUDIO LEFT/RIGHT outputs of OUT2 on the rear of the DIRECTV Receiver to the corresponding video and audio inputs on the VCR. These outputs always output satellite programming and are not affected by the A/V Matrix. Alternatively, you can connect the TO TV/VCR RF output to the RF input on the VCR but this output will output the selected video source of the A/V Matrix when this feature is enabled.
3.To use the A/V Matrix, you must use video output option C (VIDEO OUT1) or D (TO TV/VCR) from page 10 and you must first enable it in the Main Menu (refer to page 28).
