Playback

Video Connections

• Use an optical digital audio cable to connect the AV

Receiver’s DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 2 to the optical

output on your D-VHS VCR, as shown.

Audio Connections

•Use an analog audio cable to connect the AV Receiver’s AUDIO VIDEO 1 L/R OUTs to the audio inputs on your recording VCR.

Connecting a VCR for Recording

Video Connections

•Use an S-Video cable to connect the AV Receiver’s S VIDEO VIDEO 1 OUT to an S-Video input on your recording VCR.

OR

•Use a composite video cable to connect the AV Receiver’s VIDEO VIDEO 1 OUT to a composite video input on your recording VCR.

•The AV Receiver 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 play- back VCR without going through the AV Receiver, connect your TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to your recording VCR’s AV 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 and video playback components are con- nected via composite video, you must connect your recording VCR via composite video as well. Similarly, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via S-Video outputs. If your TV and video playback components are connected via S-Video, you must connect your recording VCR via S-Video as well.
