Notes:

The AV receiver/AV amplifier must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s in Standby mode.

If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver/AV amplifier, connect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV and VCR for details.

Video signals connected to composite video inputs can only be recorded via composite video outputs. If your TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR must be connected to a composite video output. Similarly, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via S-Video outputs. If your TV/VCR is connected to an S-Video input, the recording VCR must be connected to an S-Video output.
