If VCR1 has S-video output, you can, use an S-video cable instead of a standard video cable for better picture performance.

Do not connect a standard video cable and an S-video cable to VIDEO-1 (or VIDEO-2) at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

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

To dub or edit, VCR 2 must select Line IN, and the TV must select VIDEO-1 (see “Selecting the antenna input” on page 20).

**The Audio OUT jacks can output the sound of either the Main or PIP picture through the Audio OUT jacks (see “Selecting the Audio OUT sound” on page 47).
