Connecting the satellite receiver using
video (CVBS) or Svideo cable
You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc., to the
S-VIDEO (Y/C) or VIDEO (CVBS) input sockets and the L AUDIO R input sockets.
Switching between S-VIDEO (Y/C) and VIDEO (CVBS) is done automatically.
The RF coaxial cable must be connected to the satellite receiver and the DVD recorder.
Connect the DVD recorder directly to the TV (cable from the S-VIDEO (Y/C) OUT , VIDEO
(CVBS) OUT sockets is directly connected to the TV). If there is a video recorder or an
additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection
system built into the DVD recorder.
Connecting additional devices with only
an RF coaxial cable
If you want to connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver..). only via RF coaxial cable,
please observe the following:
The DVD Recorder must be connected directly to the TV. If there is a video recorder or an
additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection
system built into the DVD Recorder.
The additional device (satellite receiver) must be connected before the DVD recorder (additional
device - DVD recorder - TV). Only the TV must be connected to the TV OUT jack of the DVD
Recorder.
•) If there is interference in the picture when the satellite receiver is switched on, a TV
broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the
satellite receiver. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 3, satellite receiver also on channel 3). In this
case, change the channel of the satellite receiver. Consult the instruction manual of the satellite
receiver.
You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to record TV programs from
the satellite receiver.
•) Switch on the additional device during the installation of the DVD recorder. During the
automatic channel search, the channel on which the additional device is transmitting will be
stored as a TV channel.
