Connecting an Optional Preview Monitor

Although you can preview the video in your editing software, you may prefer to view it at full size on a TV monitor. There are two ways to connect a preview monitor.

Method A: During the capture process, if the Hollywood DV-Bridge is not connected for video output to an analog device, connect the TV monitor as follows.

1.Connect one end of an RCA video cable (yellow) or S-video cable (black) to the corre- sponding Video Out connector on the back of the Hollywood DV-Bridge.

2.Connect the other end of the video cable to the corresponding Video In connector on your TV monitor.

Note: Some older model TVs may not have Video In connectors. For specific details, check the documentation included with your TV.

3.Connect an RCA audio cable (red and white) from the Audio Out connectors on the back of the Hollywood DV-Bridge to the Audio In connectors on the TV monitor.

Note: Your audio cable may have separate connectors for left and right, or the connec- tors might be joined as shown in the illustration below. Remember that you need to use a Y-adapter if the monitor only supports mono input.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the monitor is set up properly to receive a video signal. It may need to be set to “Line In,” “L1,” “L2,” “Aux” or a similar channel. Check the monitor’s documentation for specific details.
