Pictures containing copy protection signals that prohibit any copying cannot be recorded.
If you pass the recorder signals through a VCR, you may not receive a clear image on your TV screen.
Be sure to connect your VCR to the DVD recorder and to your TV in the order shown below. To watch
video tapes, watch the tapes through a second line input on your TV.
If you disconnect the recorder’s AC power cord (mains lead), you will not be able to view the signals
from the connected VCR.
Connect a VCR or similar recording device to the LINE 2 IN jacks of this recorder. If the
equipment has an S-video jack, you can use an S-video cord instead of an audio/video cord.
z Hint
When the connected equipment outputs only monaural sound, connect to only the L(MONO) and VIDEO
input jacks on the front of the recorder. Do not connect the R input jack.
b Notes
Do not connect the yellow LINE IN (VIDEO) jack when using an S-video cord.
Do not connect the output jack of this recorder to another equipment’s input jack with the other
equipment’s output jack connected to the input jack of this recorder. This may cause noise (feedback).
