Connecting a DVD player with
ColorStream
®
(component video)
and a VCR
Your TV has ColorStream
®
(component video)
connections. Connecting your TV to a component
video compatible DVD player (such as a Toshiba
DVD player with ColorStream
®
) can greatly enhance
picture quality and performance.
This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, or
TV programs, and record DVD or TV programs
(when authorized). You can record from one source
while watching a program from another source.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• three pairs of audio cables (one pair and two
single audio cables for a mono VCR)
• two regular video cables
• one set of component video cables
Note:
For the best picture performance, use component video
cables between the TV and DVD player.
Note:
If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables
instead of standard (yellow) video cables.
Do not connect a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
Do not connect the same VCR to both the
output and the input jacks on the TV at the
same time.
When recording, set Audio Out to
FIXED (see “Selecting variable audio
OUT” on page 35). With Audio Out set
to FIXED, the TV’s volume setting will
not affect the sound level being
recorded.
