Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream® (component video), a VCR, and a satellite receiver

Your TV has two sets of ColorStream® HD (high definition component video) inputs.

You will need:

•	coaxial cables
•	standard A/V cables
	– For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video,
	connect an S-video cable and standard (analog) audio
	cables to the VIDEO-2inputs on the side panel (instead of
	the VIDEO-1inputs). Do not connect both types of video
	cable to VIDEO-2at the same time or the picture
	performance will be unacceptable.

To record a TV program while watching a DVD:

Turn ON the VCR. Tune the VCR to the channel to record. Select the ColorStream HD-1video input source on the TV* to view the DVD.

*To select the video input source, press +on the remote control (- page 30). To program the TV remote control to operate other devices, see “Using the remote control to operate your other devices” on page 19.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Law and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
