Connecting a Set-Top Box or
Other Video Equipment
Most VCRs and set-top boxes have both an RF (radio frequency, using coaxial
cable) output and at least one
direct
(non-RF) A/V output. The latter consists of
either an S-video (4-pin DIN) or a composite video (yellow RCA jack) connection
or both, plus an audio-out (red and white RCA jacks). Analog camcorders often
have one direct A/V output.

Yellow RCA jack
Red and white RCA jacks
For best results, NVIDIA recommends that you use an S-video connection to bring
in the video to the NVIDIA DualTV, or use a composite video connection if S-
video output is not available on your set-top box or other equipment.
The instructions below assume the use of a direct (non-RF) A/V connection. The
A/V cable connections for capturing analog video output from a camcorder or
VCR are the same as that for a set-top box.
If you are using one or two set-top boxes with MCE, you also need an MCE-
compatible remote control and receiver with IR blaster(s). The section after the next
one describes the procedures for setting up the IR remote control and receiver.
A/V Cable Connections
When connecting
one
set-top box, use the
SVID1/AUD1
connectors. Use the
SVID2/AUD2
connectors for a
second
set-top box. Always use the
SVID1/AUD1
connectors first.
Use the following procedure to connect a set-top box.
1.
Use the S-video cable to connect from S-video-out
on the set-top box to
SVID 1
on the NVIDIA
DualTV card.
Or
Use the yellow wire
of the RCA cable to connect
composite video-out on the set-top box to the composite video
adapter, and then connect the composite video adapter
to
SVID 1
on the NVIDIA DualTV card.
2.
Use the red
and white
wires of the RCA cable to
connect to the right and left audio-out respectively on the set-top box.
Connect the other end of the red and white wires of the RCA cable to the
minijack-to-RCA cable. Finally, connect the minijack-to-RCA cable to
AUD 1
on the NVIDIA DualTV card.
Repeat this procedure using
SVID2
and
AUD2
to connect to a second set-top box.
