Adding system components
Connecting a home
entertainment
system
You can integrate the DIRECTV
®
Receiver into your entertainment system to
take advantage of enhanced audio and video capability. Follow these
instructions to connect your DIRECTV Receiver.
•
To connect the DIRECTV Receiver to your audio system, use A/V cables to
connect the satellite receiver to the audio receiver’s
AUDIO IN
jacks.
The A/V receiver
must
be
turned on in order to send the
video signal to your TV.
•
Dolby Digital - With the GCEB0A model, you can enjoy programs that
contain a Dolby Digital sound track. We recommend that you listen in
surround sound for maximum enjoyment of these programs. You can
connect the stereo outputs of the GCEB0A to a receiver that contains a
Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder. This will provide you with three audio
channels in the front and a mono surround channel.
•
To take full advantage of Dolby Digital programming, connect the
GCEB0A digital audio output to an external
5.1-channel
Dolby Digital
decoder or receiver. This provides you with three front channels, two
independent surround channels, and a sub-woofer channel.
1. Connect the satellite antenna RG-6 coaxial cable to the DIRECTV
Receiver’s
SATELLITE IN
jack.
2. Connect the DIRECTV Receiver’s
A/V
jacks to the VCR and A/V receiver’s
A/V
jacks.
3.
AUX, optical connection, and digital output connections –
If your audio
receiver has coaxial or optical digital connectors, connect the appropriate
type of cable to the DIRECTV Receiver’s
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
for
two-channel digital stereo. If your A/V receiver is also capable of decoding
Dolby Digital, use this connection in order to listen in full 5.1-channel
surround sound. Additional audio information begins on page 21.
4. Connect the VCR’s
A/V OUT
jacks to a pair of the A/V receiver’s
A/V IN
jacks.
5. Connect the A/V receiver’s
MONITOR OUT
jack to the TV’s
VIDEO IN
jack.
6. Plug the components into an electrical outlet.
Note:
If you have connected a VCR to your entertainment system in a
way that routes the satellite receiver’s signal to your VCR before it reaches
the TV, you may see a distorted picture if you try to record a copy-protected
program. A
Can’t Tape
symbol in the screen banner identifies these
programs. If this occurs, simply stop recording and the picture will
automatically correct itself.
