Connecting two VCRs
This connection allows you to record (dub/edit) from one VCR to
another VCR while watching a videotape. You can also record from
one TV channel while watching another channel.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• two pairs of audio cables (two single audio cables for mono
VCRs)
• two video cables (two S-video cables for S-VHS VCRs)

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, you must use
the ColorStream (component video) connections between
the TV and DVD player. Connect the ColorStream cables
from the DVD player to the jacks marked “ColorStream”
on the TV.
The ColorStream input on the TV is for use with DVD
players that offer interlaced (480i) scanning ONLY. If you
have a progressive scan (480p) DVD player, you
must switch the DVD player to interlaced (480i)
mode first, and then connect it to the TV’s ColorStream
jacks. Failure to do this will cause unacceptable
picture performance.
Connection of a high definition set-top receiver box is
permitted only if the output is switched to the interlaced
(480i) scan mode. This TV will not accept or display
progressive scan (480p/720p) signals or 1080i
interlaced high definition signals.
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 both S-video and ColorStream cables
between the TV and DVD player at the same time. Doing
so will distort the picture.
To record, set the VCR to Line IN. To monitor recording,
set the VCR to Line IN and the TV to Video-1.
Note:
Do not connect the same VCR to the output
and input jacks on the TV at the same time.
If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables
(in the S-video jacks) instead of regular video
cables. Do not connect both a regular video
cable and an S-video cable to Video-1 (or
Video-2) at the same time.
To dub or edit, VCR 2 must select Line IN,
and the TV must select Video-1.
*
The Audio OUT jacks can output the sound
of either the Main or PIP picture (see
“Selecting the Audio OUT sound” on page
45).
**
The Video OUT jack does not output the
PIP picture.
