Note:
If you have VCRs with S-video, use S-video
cables instead of standard video cables for
better picture performance. Do not connect
both 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 24).
* The Video OUT jack does not output the
POP picture.
** The Audio OUT jacks can output the sound
of either the Main or POP picture (see
"Selecting the Audio OUT sound" on page
57).
The unauthorized recording, use,
distribution, or revision of television
programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other
materials is prohibited under Copyright
Law and may subject you to civil and
criminal liability.
Note:
If you have a camcorder with S-video, use an
S-video cable instead of a standard video
cable for better picture performance. Do not
connect both a standard video cable and an
S-video cable at the same time, or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
