You will need:
• coaxial cables
• standard A/V cables
– For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video,
use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of
the standard video cable.
– For better picture performance, if your camcorder has
S-video, connect an S-video cable (plus the audio cables)
to VIDEO 1 on the TV back instead of the VIDEO 2 on the
TV right side panel.
– If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV to
your VCR’s audio out terminal using the white audio cable
only.
•
S-video cable (if your VCR or camcorder has S-video)
– Do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 at
the same time or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
•
standard audio cables (if your VCR or camcorder has
S-video)
