Recording from Video Components

The following operations show you how to record audio and video to the video tape recorder connected to the VCR 1 or VCR 2 jacks. Note that all signals coming out of these jacks will be analog and it is not possible to record DTS soundtracks.

The receiver’s volume, channel level tone (BASS, TREBLE, and LOUDNESS), and surround effects have no effect on the recorded signal.
