Connecting Other Audio or Video Devices
Once the Videum AV or VO board is installed, you can connect
other audio and video sources to the board such as VCRs,
camcorders, laser disc players, and external CD-ROM players.
The table below shows the types of devices that can be
connected to each connector on the Videum board. The table
also shows the connector type because you may need to
provide your own cables, which you can purchase at your local
electronics or radio/TV store.
