How to find your TV’s Video Input Channel
In order to see what’s playing on your DVD Player, you need to tune the TV to the Video Input Channel that corresponds to the Input Jacks on
your TV that you used to connect the Digital Media Recorder to the TV. The Video Input Channel(s) varies for different brands and different
models of TVs.
RCA, GE, and Proscan TVs
If your brand of TV is RCA, GE, or Proscan, the remote control packed with your Digital Media Recorder will most likely access the TV’s Video
Input Channel— with the Digital Media Recorder turned on, press the TV button, and then press INPUT until you see the Digital Media Recorder’s
menu on your TV screen.
Other Brands of TVs
Since access to a TV’s Video Input Channel varies from one manufacturer to the next, it’s difficult to provide specific instructions for your
particular brand. Below is a list of suggestions.
• Consult the Instruction Manual that came with your TV.
• If you can’t find the information in the manual, or can’t find the manual, review the following list.
• There might be a button on the TV’s remote control that accesses the Video Input Channel (see table below for examples).
•You might select the Video Input Channel from the TV’s menu system.
•You might tune to it by pressing a specific channel number (see table below)
• Press the Channel up and/or down buttons on the TV’s remote control (sometimes the Video Input Channel is stored in your TV’s
channel list).
