Note

1If your DVD player only has an optical digital output, you can connect it to the optical input on this receiver using an optical cable. When you set up the receiver you'll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the player to (for the VSX-415 see Digital input settings on page 43 and for the VSX-515 see The Input Assign menu on page 51).

2This connection will allow you to make analog recordings from your DVD player.
