Chapter 2 - Connections

It’s not always about playback. Sometimes you want to record, and these days that means DVD recorders, HDD recorders, and PVRs (such as TiVo®), in addition to the old standby, the VCR.

Once you’ve connected a dual playback/record de- vice to the Video 3 or Video 4 inputs (see page 15), follow these steps to connect the GTP-870HD back out to the device for record capability.

Connecting a Video Recorder

1Connect video.

•Using a video cable, connect the Video Tape output on the GTP-870HD to the video input on your video recorder.

•For higher quality video, use an S-video ca-

ble to connect to your video recorder.

2Connect audio.

•Using RCA cables, connect the Video 3 or Video 4 audio outputs on the GTP-870HD to the audio inputs on your video recorder.

•Choose Video 3 or Video 4 depending on which input your recorder is connected to.

•If you have two video recording devices con- nected, you can use the Aux output for audio recording.

Tip

An alternate use of the S-Video Out is to provide video to 'legacy' video display devices. For example, you could use the S-Video out to provide input to a video processor connected to an older projector that requires an RGB input.
