7VIDEO INPUTS

The AVP2 includes four composite and four S-video inputs. Any combina- tion of the available inputs may be used, and for your convenience, conver- sion from S-video to composite is provided on both the main and the record/remote paths.

Thus S-video sources may be viewed via either the S-video or the compos- ite outputs; composite sources are only available on the composite output. (If viewed via the S-video output, the composite signal will be in black and white.)

Composite video inputs use RCA connectors. S-video inputs utilize “S” con- nectors:
