Using Analog Connections

Even if your DVD player is connected digitally (coaxial

or optical), to use , or to record audio from your DVD player, you’ll need to make analog connections as well.

Use an analog audio cable (RCA/phono) to connect the DTR-8.4’s AUDIO DVD IN L/R inputs to the analog audio outputs on your DVD player, as shown.

If your DVD player has left, right, and multichannel out- puts, be sure to use the left and right outputs.
