Connecting a VCR or DVD Recorder for Playback

In addition to video playback, with this hookup example, you can use the VCR’s tuner to listen to the sound of your favorite TV programs via the AV receiver. This is useful if the TV has no audio outputs.

Step 1: Video Connection

Choose a connection type ( A , B , or C ) that matches the VCR/DVD recorder, and then make the connection. The

TV must be connected to the AV receiver with the same type of connection.
