Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream™ (component video) and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, or TV programs, and record DVD or TV programs (when authorized). You can record from one source while watching a program from another source.

Your TV has ColorStream (component video) connec- tions. Connecting your TV to a component video compatible DVD player (such as a Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream) can greatly enhance picture quality and performance.

You will need:

one coaxial cable

three pairs of audio cables (one pair and two single audio cables for a mono VCR)

two regular video cables

one set of ColorStream (component) video cables

Note:

For the best picture performance, use ColorStream (component video) cables between the TV and DVD player. To record from the DVD player, the DVD player and TV must select VIDEO 1.

When recording, set Audio Out to FIX (see “Selecting variable audio OUT” on page 33). With Audio Out set to FIX, the TV’s volume setting during recording will not affect the sound level being recorded.

Caution:

The unauthorized recording of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials may infringe upon the provisions of copyright laws.

Note:

If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables instead of regular video cables.

Do not connect a regular video cable and an S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the same time.

Do not connect the same VCR to the output and input jacks on the TV at the same time.
