Adding an extra device (passthrough) to an Activity

A passthrough device is a device that you add to your system that a signal passes through unaltered.

For example, if you use your DVD recorder (or VCR) to record shows from your satellite or set top box, you may need to add your DVD recorder as a passthrough device.

In these examples, the DVD Recorder and the A/V Switch are used as passthrough devices.
