VIDEO LINE OUT terminal (BNC)
This terminal is used to connect the DVD recorder to a monitor.

When the DVD recorder is in Stop or Recording mode, the
video input signal is output on the E-E screen as a
composite video signal.

If the REC button is pressed and held for at least 2 seconds
while the DVD recorder is stopped, the input signal will be
subjected to MPEG encode/decode processing and output
via the VIDEO LINE OUT terminal. This will continue for as
long as the REC button is held, and it allows the DVD
recording quality to be confirmed.

Playback from the DVD is output as a composite signal
when in Playback mode.
