Connecting your DVD recorder
If your TV is not equipped with “Easy Link”, you need to connect the DVD recorder to
your TV using one of the following connection (the connection you choose will most
likely depend on the connections supported by your TV).
SCART (best picture quality)
SCART connections offer the best picture quality, so if your TV has a SCART
input, use it.
By using the DVD recorder’s user preferences, you can select whether the
EXT
1 TO TV-I/O
SCART socket outputs video signals in RGB or S-Video format.
RGB offers the best picture quality.
S-Video (very good picture quality)
S-Video connections offer better picture quality than composite video, so if your
TV has an S-Video input, use it.
Composite video (good picture quality)
If your TV has neither SCART nor S-Video inputs, use a composite video connec-
tion.
Using a SCART cable without “Easy Link”
Since SCART cables carry video and audio signals, only one cable is necessary.
