Figure 9. Connecting a VCR to a cable box

5.Connect the cable box outputs to the TV as shown in one of the options listed below. This connection allows the TV to receive the best available signal directly from the cable box.

•Figure 1, page 19: Component video output to the TV’s Y Pb Pr jacks; analog stereo audio to the associated AUDIO jacks.

•Figure 2, page 20: HDMI output to the TV’s HDMI jack.

•Figure 7, page 22: S-Video output to the TV’s INPUT 3 S-VIDEOjack; analog stereo audio to the INPUT 3 AUDIO jacks.

6.Connect either an S-Video or composite video cable from VIDEO OUT on the VCR back panel to a VIDEO composite or S-VIDEOjack on the TV back panel. Connect only one type of video cable. S-Video is preferable to composite video, if avail- able.

7.To use the TV speakers with the VCR, connect left (white) and right (red) audio cables from AUDIO OUT on the VCR back panel to the associated INPUT AUDIO L and R on the TV back panel. If your VCR is mono (non-stereo), connect only the white (left) cable.

Note: When using this connection configuration with the connections used in step 5, it is possible to view live cable programs through the VCR Device. For best picture quality always view live cable programs directly from the TV input connected to the cable box device.

Older Cable Box

Note: This connection is not recommended. The other connections described in this chapter provide better quality audio and video to the TV and allow NetCommand to work with the cable box.
