Setting Up Analog VCR Recordings with TV Guide On Screen

When setting up a recording using TV Guide On Screen, note that:

You must select the desired recording device in the TV Guide On Screen Record Options menu.

If you have both analog and digital recording devices, always verify that the analog device is the TV Guide On Screen default device before starting an analog recording with the (Record) key.

The destination recording device for analog recordings must be the analog device connected to the TV’s RECORD OUTPUT jacks.

Restrictions for Traditional VCRs with NetCommand- and TV Guide On Screen-Controlled Recording

Your VCR must be connected directly to the RECORD OUTPUT audio and video outputs.

If the source device or recording device does not have separate power on and off controls, then leave the device powered on.

Direct VCR Recording from an Antenna or Cable Source

You can use this method when the VCR is connected to receive programming from a cable box, direct cable, or over-the-air antenna.

1.Press INPUT on the TV’s remote to display the Input Selection menu. Highlight the traditional VCR and press POWER to turn on the VCR.

2.Press ENTER to switch the TV to the VCR.
