■Recording the Picture and Sound From Different Sources at the Same Time

The picture from the playing VIDEO 2/CDR/PC source is output through the VIDEO OUT jacks when you select any audio source (TAPE/MD, FM, or AM) or TV/LINE.

Play the VIDEO 1 source and select TAPE/MD, FM, AM, or TV/LINE, then you can record the picture from the VIDEO 1 source and the sound from the selected input source at the same time, using the recording equipment connected to the VIDEO 2 jacks.

■Digital recording from the source connected to the digital input connectors to the digital recording equipment connected to the digital output connector

The digital input connectors are as follows:

•The VIDEO 1 DIGITAL INPUT (COAX) connector, and

•The VIDEO 2 DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) connector.

The digital output connector is the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector.

Recording digital sound signals from sources connected to the digital input connectors using digital recording equipment connected to the digital output is possible unless:

•The recording is against SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) rules (for details of SCMS rules, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment),

•The digital signals are in bitstream format (the recordable digital signal format is PCM –– two channel digital stereo sound signals), or

•The sampling frequency is out of the recordable range of the recording equipment (for recordable sampling frequency, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment). Note that the maximum signal frequency output from the DVD Receiver is 48 kHz.

■Analog recording from a DVD Video played
using the DVD Receiver

DVD

 

The digital sound signals are converted to analog signals and output to the analog output jacks unless the DVD video is recorded in the DTS Surround.

Although the speakers can reproduce DTS Surround sounds, DTS signals are not output to the analog output jacks.
