Note:

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

If you have a VCR with S-video, use an S- video cable instead of a standard video cable.

When you use a converter box with your TV, the remote control will not operate some features, such as programming your favorite channels, labeling channels, and locking channels.

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