Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box (with or without ColorStream™) and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV broadcast), VCR, and TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs. You can record from one source while watching a program from another source.

Your TV has ColorStream component video inputs. Connecting your TV to a ColorStream-compatible DTV receiver can greatly enhance picture quality and realism.

You will need:

one coaxial cable

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

two video cables

one set of ColorStream video cables (one S-video cable for a non-ColorStream DTV receiver; see notes at right)

DTV Receiver with ColorStream™

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality, you must use ColorStream video cables between the TV and DTV receiver. You can connect the ColorStream cables from the DTV receiver to either ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1 or HD2).

The ColorStream HD1 and HD2 jacks can be used with Progressive (480p) and Interlace (480i, 1080i) scan systems.

If your DTV receiver is not ColorStream- compatible, use the S-video connections (both audio and video) instead of the ColorStream connections. (Be aware, however, that a ColorStream connection provides higher picture quality than an S-video connection.) Do not connect both S-Video and ColorStream cables between the TV and DTV receiver at the same time.

To record from the DTV receiver, set the VCR to Line IN. To monitor recording from the DTV receiver, set the VCR to Line IN, and set the TV to Video-1.

Caution:

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