connections between them and your receiver. Refer to the manuals for that equipment to see the connection options specific to each
make and model. The following images show examples of how your receiver may be connected using the supported video and audio
connections for the TV, the surround sound, and the DVD player/burner or VCR. Several models of DIRECTV Receivers are shown,
