Connecting A Dtv Receiver/Set-Top Box (With Component Video) And A Vcr - Toshiba 34HFX83 Owner's Manual

Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box (with
component video) and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV), VCR, and
TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs.
Your TV has ColorStream (component video) inputs. Connecting
your TV to a DTV receiver with component video inputs can greatly
enhance picture quality and realism.
– To record and watch a DTV program, select LINE IN on the
VCR, and select ColorStream HD-2 (or VIDEO 1 for a non-
ColorStream connection) on the TV (see "Selecting the antenna
input" on page 23).
– To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the
VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD-2 on
the TV.
– To record and watch the same TV program, tune the VCR to the
channel to record, and select VIDEO 1 on the TV.
– To record one TV program while watching another TV program,
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the
channel to watch.
You will need:
• three coaxial cables
• two sets of standard A/V cables
• one pair of audio cables
• one set of component video cables

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, use
component video cables (or a DVI-D single-
link cable) between the TV and DTV receiver.
You can connect component video cables to
either set of ColorStream jacks on the TV
(HD-1 or HD-2).
The ColorStream HD-1 and HD-2 jacks can
be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and
Interlaced (480i,1080i) scan systems. A 1080i
signal will provide the best picture
performance.
If your DTV receiver does not have
component video (or DVI/HDCP video), use
the S-video and standard audio connections
instead. Do not connect both an S-video and
a standard video cable to VIDEO 1 (or
VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture
performance will be unacceptable..
For DVI/HDCP connection, see page 13.
The unauthorized recording, use,
distribution, or revision of television
programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other
materials is prohibited under the
Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to
civil and criminal liability.
