Connecting A Dvd Player Or Satellite Receiver And A Vcr - Toshiba 27AF42 Owner's Manual

Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver
and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, or TV
programs, and record from the satellite receiver or TV. You can record
one TV program while watching another TV program.
Note: If your DVD player has component video connections, follow the
connection instructions under "Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream
(component video) and a VCR" on page 10.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• three pairs of audio cables (one pair and two single audio cables
for a mono VCR)
• two regular video cables (see notes at right)
• one S-video cable (see notes at right)

Note:
See "Note Regarding Picture Quality" on
page 7.
You can use a regular video cable instead of
an S-video cable between the TV and DVD
player/satellite receiver, but the picture quality
will decrease. The illustration at left shows one
S-video cable and one pair of audio cables
connected from the DVD player/satellite
receiver to Video-1 on the TV.
Do not connect a regular video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time. Doing so will cause unacceptable
picture performance.
When recording, set Audio Out to
FIXED (see "Selecting variable audio
OUT" on page 33). With Audio Out set
to FIXED, the TV's volume setting will
not affect the sound level being
recorded.
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.
