You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the
S-VIDEO IN, Video in, COMPONENT VIDEO IN and the IN AUDIO L/R, AUDIO L/R
IN jacks on the recorder Switching between jack S-VIDEO IN and Video in is done
automatically. In case both jacks are occupied, the signal at jack S-VIDEO IN is given priority
The DVD recorder must be connected directly to the TV set (S-VIDEO OUT, VIDEO
(CVBS) OUT, or COMPONENT VIDEO OUT socket directly to the TV set), If there is a
video recorder in between the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection
system built into the DVD recorder
