Video component connections
Use the cables with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).
Connect the white plug to the audio left jack, the red plug to the audio right jack, and
the yellow plug to the video jack.
If your video components have S-video (Y/C-separation) terminals, connect them using
S-video cables (not supplied). Connecting these video components through the S-video
input/output terminals will give you better picture playback (or recording) quality.
IMPORTANT:
This receiver is equipped with both the composite video and S-video input/output
terminals for connecting video components.
You do not have to connect both the composite video and S-video terminals.
However, remember that the video signals from the composite video input
terminals are output only through the composite video output terminals,
while the ones from the S-video input terminals are output only through the
S-video output terminals.
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video component are
connected to the receiver through the different video terminals, you cannot record
the picture from the playing component on the recording component. In addition,
if the TV and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through the
different video terminals, you cannot view the playback picture from the playing
component on the TV.
To view and record the playback picture from the video component connected
to the VCR2 jacks, you must connect the TV and the recording video
component through the composite video terminals.

You can connect either the TV or DBS tuner to the TV SOUND/DBS jacks.
