Hooking Up Your VCR

Connections to Home Theater Receiver

You may wish to connect your VCR to a Home Theater Receiver so that you can take advantage of the Surround Sound audio recordings that are common with many movies. Home Theater Receivers often will control both the sound that is heard from the speakers and the picture shown on your TV. Below is the basic connection between your VCR and Home Theater Receiver. If you use this connection, you will not use Connections to TV with Audio Video Inputs.

1Connect the red and white audio cables to AUDIO OUT R and AUDIO OUT L on the VCR. Connect the other end to the VCR 1 AUDIO INPUT R and AUDIO INPUT L on the Home Theater Receiver.

2Connect an S-video cable to S-VIDEO OUT on the VCR. Connect the other end to the VCR 1 S-VIDEO INPUT on the Home Theater Receiver.

3Connect an S-video cable to the MONITOR S-VIDEO OUTPUT of the Home Theater Receiver. Connect the other end to the S-VIDEO INPUT on the back of the TV.

IMPORTANT

If either your Home Theater Receiver or TV does not have S-Video connections, use standard yellow video cables in step 2 and 3.

4See your Home Theater Receiver Owner’s Guide for information concerning audio connection between TV and Home Theater Receiver, or additional hookups and operations.

IMPORTANT

You may need to purchase additional sets of audio video cables for this hookup.
