Connecting a DVD player with
ColorStream™ (component video) and
a VCR
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.
Your TV has ColorStream (component video) connec-
tions. 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.
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 ColorStream (component) video cables
Note:
For the best picture performance, use ColorStream
(component video) cables between the TV and DVD
player. To record from the DVD player, the DVD player
and TV must select VIDEO 1.
Note:
If you have S-VHS VCRs, use S-video cables
instead of regular video cables.
Do not connect a regular video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time.
Do not connect the same VCR to the output
and input jacks on the TV at the same time.
