You can temporarily mute the output of the AV receiver.
This section explains how to record the selected input
source to a component with recording capability, and how
to record audio and video from different sources.
AV Recording
Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette
tape deck, CDR, MD recorder). Video sources can be
recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVD recorder).
Recording Separate AV Sources
Here you can record audio and video from completely
separate sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your
video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact
that when an audio-only input source (TV/CD) is selected,
the video input source remains unchanged.
In the following example, audio from the CD player
connected to the
TV/CD IN
and video from the camcorder
connected to the
AUX INPUT VIDEO
are recorded by the
VCR connected to the
VCR/DVR OUT
jacks.

Using Headphones
