Connecting a DVD player or satellite receiver
and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, and TV
programs, and record one TV channel while watching another
channel.
You will need:
• two (or three, if satellite receiver is used) coaxial cables
• one set of standard A/V cables (between the TV and VCR) (plus
one additional set of standard A/V cables if satellite receiver is
used)
• one S-video cable (between the TV and DVD player/satellite
receiver)
• one pair of standard audio cables (between the TV and DVD
player/satellite receiver)

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality from a
DVD player or satellite receiver without
component video or HDMI, use an S-video
cable. (If your DVD player has component
video, see page 12. If your DVD player or
satellite receiver has HDMI or DVI, see page
15.)
Do not connect both an S-video cable and a
standard video cable between the TV and
DVD player/satellite receiver at the same time
or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
Do not connect the DVD player/satellite
receiver and VCR to the same set of Video
inputs on the TV. (See the illustrations, which
show the DVD player/satellite receiver
connected to Video-1 on the TV, and the VCR
connected to Video-2 on the TV.)
The unauthorized recording, use,
distribution, or revision of television
programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other
materials is prohibited under the
Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to
civil and criminal liability.
