CConnecting additional devices

Connecting additional devices to the second scart socket

You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the EXT 2 AUX-I/Osocket. When playback is started on this additional device the DVD recorder automatically connects the EXT 2 AUX-I/Oscart socket with the EXT 1 TO TV-I/Oscart socket. You will then see the picture from the additional device on your TV set, even if the DVD recorder is switched off.

The TV/DVD button on the remote control allows you to switch between playback through the EXT 2 AUX-I/Oscart socket and playback from the DVD recorder.

The DVD recorder must be connected directly to the TV set ( EXT 1 TO TV-I/Osocket directly to the TV set). If there is a video recorder in between the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD recorder.

Connecting a video recorder, DVD player.

You can connect a video recorder or a DVD player to the EXT 2 AUX-I/Oinput socket. If you already have an external receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box) connected to this socket, you can connect the video recorder to the 'VCR', 'TO VCR', ...socket of the external receiver.

You can also use the front sockets S-VIDEO , VIDEO and the left AUDIO right audio sockets.

Please note:

Most prerecorded video cassettes and DVDs are copy-protected. If you try to copy them you will see the message '￿￿￿￿ ￿￿￿￿' on the DVD recorder's display.

aWhen copying video cassettes the display on the DVD recorder shows '￿￿ ￿￿￿￿￿￿'

b Check that the cable is plugged in firmly.

b If a recording is made from a video recorder, change the tracking on the video recorder.

b The DVD recorder may not be able to recognise the video input signal if this signal is poor or does not comply with relevant standards.

aWhen I copy DVD video discs or prerecorded video cassettes the picture is fuzzy and the brightness varies

b This happens if you try to copy DVDs or video cassettes that have been copy-protected. Even though the picture on the TV is fine the recording on

a DVD+RW/+R is faulty. This interference is	unavoidable with
copy-protected DVDs or video cassettes.	Problem
