Connecting A Dtv Receiver/Set-Top Box With Component Video And A Vcr - Toshiba 36HF13 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 can greatly
enhance picture quality and realism.
– To record and watch a DTV program, select LINE IN on the
VCR, and select ColorStream HD2 (or VIDEO 1 for a non-
ColorStream connection) on the TV (see "Selecting the antenna
input" on page 20).
– To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the
VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD2 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 between the TV and
DTV receiver. You can connect the
component video cables from the DTV
receiver 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) and
Interlaced (480i,1080i) scan systems. A 1080i
signal will provide the best picture
performance.
If your DTV receiver does not have
component video connections, use the
S-video connections (plus the standard audio
connections) instead of the ColorStream
connections. Do not connect both an S-video
and a standard video cable between the TV
and DTV receiver at the same time. Also see
page 9.
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.
