Chapter 1: Connections and Setup
Front of the DVD/VCR
COPY –
Shortcut to transfer tapes (VCR) to disc (DVD), which is great for converting your camcorder recordings that are on videocassette tape to a DVD disc. When
you have a recordable DVD+R or DVD+RW disc in the DVD disc tray and a videocassette tape in the VCR, press COPY (the VCR starts playing and the DVD/VCR starts
recording automatically).
STANDBY/ON –
Turns the DVD/VCR on and off.
VCR Buttons
RECORD –
Records to a videocassette tape.
STOP/EJECT –
When playing a tape, stops playback. When tape isn’t playing, ejects the tape.
REV –
Rewinds the tape
FWD –
Fast forwards the tape
PLAY/PAUSE –
Starts playback. During playback, pauses playback.
INPUT –
Just like a TV has Video Input Channels (page 16), the DVD/VCR has one Video Input Channel for each set of INPUT jacks. The Video Input Channel is the
“channel” to which you tune the DVD/VCR so you can see the picture and hear the sound that’s coming from the component that is connected to the DVD/VCR’s INPUT
jacks. For example, if you connected your camcorder to the Audio and Video Input jacks on the front of the DVD/VCR, you would press the INPUT button until
INPUT 2-
Front
appears.

preceding chapter or track.
CH+/SKIP+ (channel up/skip forward) –
Goes to the next channel in the channel list when you’re watching TV. When playing a disc, goes to the beginning of
the next title, chapter, or track on a disc (in effect,“skipping” the title, chapter, or track).

Front Input Jacks:
INPUT 2: Audio/Video jacks –
These Input Jacks are provided for convenience when you are connecting a temporary component, such as a camcorder.
S-VIDEO –
If a component you’re connecting, such as a camcorder, has an S-Video Output jack connect it to this jack for picture quality that is better than regular
video (yellow). Remember, you still have to connect audio cables to hear sound.
