To perform tape editing, set the TV to the video input intended for playback by pressing TV/VIDEO on the remote control.
You may need to change the video input on your VCR. Consult your VCR’s operating manual for instructions.
If your VCRs have S VIDEO jacks: For best picture quality, use an S VIDEO connection instead of the video cable (yellow) on your combined A/V cable.
Use an S VIDEO cable to connect the playback VCR’s S VIDEO OUT jack to the recording VCR’s S VIDEO IN jack. S VIDEO does not provide audio, so audio cables must be connected to provide sound.
You cannot record signals from equipment connected to the
Y PB/CB PR/CR input.
