Video recorder/PVR connection

Connect your recorder and the receiver (VCR socket) using a Scart cable. If you have a S-VHS (S-Video) recorder, from the “Installation” menu select the “Signal paths” sub-menu and change the selection (TV Scart VCR) so that the “YC” signal is output at the VCR socket.

Recording

To record a programme now running, set your recorder to record. Note that the volume on the receiver is set to full during recording (L 20 on the 7-segment display). This is the only way to obtain the full audio quality on subsequent playback. Also make sure that you do not perform any other actions on the receiver during this direct recording process – any on-screen displays would be recorded along with the programme.

For recording with the timer, refer to the “Timer” section.

Playback

	Playback via your recorder i.e. transmission of the signal
	from the VCR to the TV set, takes place automatically when
	the receiver is operating or in standby. The switching voltage
	from the recorder is detected by the receiver and the VCR
	signal is switched through to the TV set. The 7-segment
	display shows “VCR”. You can switch to the receiver
	channel at any time, even without stopping playback on
	your recorder. To do so press the ! button (green). To switch
	back to the recorder playback, press the ! button (green)
	twice.
Note:	The ! button (green) controls the TV switching voltage
	(pin 8) at the TV Scart socket. The TV switching voltage is
	activated when the video signal from the receiver or from
	the recorder is switched to the TV set. During normal
	operation, without a recorder, use the ! button (green) to
	switch between the receiver channel and an additional
	video signal to the TV set. This additional video signal to
	the TV set might, for example, come from your existing
	“analogue” antenna, from a cable connection or from a
	DVD player connected directly to the TV. The display of
	video signals available on the TV set is dependent on the
	specification of your TV set. In the above operating mode
	with a recorder during playback, the ! button (green) would
	thus set the video sources from the TV, the recorder and
	the receiver one after the other.
