Connecting a VCR and antenna or
Cable TV (no Cable box)
You will need:
coaxial cables
•
standard A/V cables
•
– For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video,
connect an S-video cable and standard (analog) audio
cables to the VIDEO-2 inputs on the side panel (instead of
the VIDEO-1 inputs). Do not connect both types of video
cable to VIDEO-2 at the same time or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
– If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV to
your VCR's audio out terminal using the white audio cable
only.
