Connecting an Optional Preview Monitor

When you convert Analog Video to DV, there are three ways to connect a preview monitor.

Method A: If an analog output device is not connected to the Hollywood DV-Bridge during the conversion process, connect the TV monitor as follows:

1.Connect an RCA video cable (yellow) or S-Video cable (black) from the Video Out con- nector on the back of the Hollywood DV-Bridge to the corresponding Video In connec- tor on the TV monitor.

2.Connect an RCA audio cable (red and white) from the Audio Out connector on the back of the Hollywood DV-Bridge to the Audio In connector on the monitor.

Note: Your audio cable may have separate connectors for left and right, or the connec- tors might be joined as shown in the illustration below. Remember that you need to use a Y-adapter if the analog camcorder or VCR only supports mono output.
