JVC RX-F31S manual DVD recorder or DVD player

Connecting video components

Do not connect the AC power plug to the wall outlet until all connections are completed.

This receiver is equipped with the following video terminals— composite video, S-video, and component video terminals.

•If your video components have S-video (Y/C-separation) and/or component video (Y, PB, PR) jacks, connect them using an S- video cable (not supplied) or component video cable (not supplied). By using these terminals, you can get a better picture quality in the order:

Component > S-video > Composite

Turn off all components before making connections.

•When you connect other components, refer also to their manuals.

DO NOT use a TV through a VCR or a TV with a built-in VCR; otherwise, the picture may be distorted.

IMPORTANT:

Component video signals are transmitted only through component video output jacks. Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through the video terminals of different type, you cannot record the picture. In addition, if the TV and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through the video terminals of different type, you cannot view the playback picture on the TV.

On the other hand, S-video signals and composite video signals can be converted into each other and transmitted through the corresponding output jack. For details about the settings of the conversion, see page 25.

CAUTION:

If you connect a sound-enhancing device such as a graphic equalizer between the source components and this receiver, the sound output through this receiver may be distorted.
