However, remember that the video signals from one type of input terminals are sent only through the video output terminals of the same type.
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through different types of video terminals, you cannot record the picture from the playing component onto the recording component. In addition, if the TV and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through different types of video terminals, you cannot view the playback picture from the playing component on the TV.
