Connecting a DVD/satellite receiver and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, video and TV
programs. You can record from the DVD/satellite receiver and TV, as
well as record one TV channel while watching another channel.

You will need:

one coaxial cable

two pairs of audio cables (only one cable
for a mono VCR)

one video cable

one S-video cable

Caution:

You can use a video cable instead of the
S-video cable, but the picture quality will
decrease. If you use a S-video cable between
the TV and DVD/satellite receiver, make the
audio connections only and remove the video
connection.

You will need:

one coaxial cable

three pairs of audio cables (only one cable
for a mono VCR)

two video cables

one set of ColorStream video cables

Caution:

To play from the DVD, the DVD and TV must
use ColorStream connections. To record from
the DVD, the DVD and TV must select Video.
The ColorStream selection in the OPTION
menu should be DVD mode. See “Selecting
the ColorStream mode” on page 21.
