Recording digital TV programs using a
VCR or DVD recorder
If you connect recording equipment such as a VCR or
DVD recorder to the MONITOR OUT terminals on the
rear of the Media Receiver, you can record, for example,
digital TV programs using the recording equipment.
You can also record digital TV programs more easily by
using the supplied VCR controller. Connect the VCR
controller to the VCR control terminal on the rear of the
Media Receiver and then position the controller so that
its light emitting section faces the remote control
sensor on the recording equipment. For more informa-
tion, see page 78.
Connecting a recorder
• About the MONITOR OUT terminals
The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output the
following signals:
1
Video signals input from the COMPONENT VIDEO
terminal
2
Video signals from a personal computer
3
S-Video signals when a conventional TV channel is
being received
4
S-Video signals when Video signals (INPUT 1, 2,
and 4) are being input
• When watching images played back on a VCR or DVD
recorder connected to the MONITOR OUT terminals,
select an input source (e.g., TV channel reception) on
the recording equipment other than external input
sources. Selecting an external input source may
result in distorted images or noise.
