Tip
To connect a monaural
VCR, use LINE-2 IN jack
and connect to the L jack
(white) (leave the red audio
plug unconnected). The
monaural audio from the L
jack will be recorded on
both left and right tracks.
Notes
If you connect the cables to
both the LINE-2 IN VIDEO
and LINE-2 IN S-VIDEO
jacks , the signal from the
S-VIDEO jack is sent to the
VCR and “S” lights in the
display window. If you
want to use the video signal
from the VIDEO jack, set L2
IN VIDEO in the
ADVANCED OPTIONS
menu to “NORM” (page
54).
Distorted signals (e.g. when
played back at a speed other
than normal) will not be
recorded properly.

Editing is not possible with
a tape that is copyright
