Connecting a DVD player with component
video and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, and TV programs,
and record from one source while watching a program from another
source.
Your TV has ColorStream
®
(component video) inputs. Connecting
your TV to a component video compatible DVD player (such as a
Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream
®
) can greatly enhance picture
quality and realism.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• three pairs of audio cables (two single and one pair of audio cables
for a mono VCR)
• two video cables
• one set of component video cables (one S-video cable for a
non component video DVD player; see notes at right)

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, use
component video cables between the TV and
DVD player. You can connect the component
video cables from the DVD player to either
ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1 or HD2).
The ColorStream HD1 and HD2 jacks can be
used with progressive (480p) or interlaced
(480i,1080i) scan systems.
If your DVD player is not component video
compatible, use the S-video connections
(both audio and video) instead of the
ColorStream connections. Do not connect
an S-video cable
and component
video cables between the TV and DVD
player
at the same time. Doing so will
cause unacceptable picture performance.
To record, set the VCR to Line IN. To monitor
recording, set the VCR to Line IN and the TV
to Video-1.
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.
