Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with S-video, a VCR, and a Cable box

You will need:

￿five coaxial cables

￿two sets of standard A/V cables

Note: If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCR’s audio out jack using the white audio cable only.

￿one S-video cable

￿one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

If your DVD player does not have S-video, use a standard video cable instead. Do not connect an S-video cable and a standard video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

If your DVD player has component video, see page 17.

Do not connect the DVD player and VCR to the same set of A/V inputs on the TV. (See the illustration, which shows the VCR connected to VIDEO 1 on the TV, and the DVD player connected to VIDEO 2.)
