Playing Back External Sources

If you connect an external AV component to CinemaStation, you can enjoy AV sources played back on that component with CinemaStation. For details on connection methods, refer to “Connecting External AV Components” (pages 14 to 17). Also, you can operate the component using the CinemaStation remote control by setting a remote control code (page 72).

Note

Make sure you read the owner’s manual for your external AV component before making any connections or operating it.

TV playback

If you connect the VIDEO IN L/R (AUDIO) jacks on the CinemaStation to the audio output L/R jacks on your TV using an audio pin cable (page 12), you can enjoy TV sounds with the CinemaStation.

If you connect the VCR IN L/R (AUDIO VIDEO) jacks on the CinemaStation to the audio/video output L/R jacks on your VCR using an audio/video cable (page 15), you can enjoy VCR sounds with the CinemaStation.

Note

When you set the “Input Assign” to “VCR” (page 78) and “Input Mode” to “AUTO” (page 79) in the Set Menu, the CinemaStation outputs the source from the OPTICAL IN jack if any source is input from it. To listen to the source input from the VCR IN jacks, stop playback on the equipment connected to the OPTICAL IN jack.
