8 Hookups  
Determining the best possible connection...  
Your hookup will be determined primarily by your existing equipment, especially yourTV. These guidelines describe  
which options have the best picture and sound quality.You will not use all the jacks on the DVD/VCR.  
If yourTV only has an RF-style jack, usually labelled Antenna In, RF In or 75 ohm, use the ANT-OUT jack  
of the DVD/VCR to connect to theTV. This hookup provides both audio and video in a single cable. Set  
yourTV to channel 3 or 4 - the output channel of the DVD/VCR.This connection allows you to use both  
the DVD andVCR features. See page 9.  
★★★★ If yourTV has ComponentVideo In jacks (which could be labelledY CR CB,Y PR PB orYUV and may be  
green, blue and red), use the ComponentVideo jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR) for the best picture quality. If you use  
only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see DVD features on theTV, set theTV  
to its ComponentVideo In channel. ComponentVideo provides the best picture quality. See page 12.  
Progressive Scan provides less flickering and higher image resolution than traditional (525i/480i or interlace)  
TV signals.  
If yourTV has Progressive Scan (525p/480p or progressive), connect theTV to the DVD/VCR’s  
COMPONENTVIDEO OUT (Y CB/PB CR/PR) jacks. Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to ON in the  
DVD/VCR’s DISPLAY menu. See pages 60-61. P.SCAN will appear on the DVD/VCR’s display panel. Set yourTV to  
Progressive Scan also  
.
If yourTV does not have Progressive Scan but has ComponentVideo In jacks, connect them to  
the DVD/VCR’s COMPONENTVIDEO OUT jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR). Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to  
OFF either in the DISPLAY menu or by pressing and holding PLAY B (DVD) on the front of the DVD/VCR  
for more than 5 seconds. See pages 60-61.  
★★★ If yourTV has an S-Video In jack (which also may be labelledY/C or S-VHS), use the S-VIDEO OUT jack for  
excellent picture quality. If you use only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see  
DVD features on theTV, set theTV to its S-Video In channel. See page 12.  
★★  
If yourTV has a single yellowVideo In jack (which also may be labelled CVBS, Composite or baseband), use  
the yellow DVD/VCRVIDEO OUT jack for good picture quality. This connection provides a picture for both  
the DVD player and theVCR. To see DVD orVCR features on theTV, set theTV to itsVideo In channel. See  
page 10.  
★★★★ If you have a Stereo with a Coaxial Digital Audio In jack, this provides the clearest sound for the DVD player.  
Connect the DVD/VCR’s COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to your Stereo for the best sound quality. If  
you use only this audio connection, only disc sound (noVCR) will be available. See page 14.  
★★★ If digital audio connections are not possible, connect the DVD/VCR’s red and white DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT  
jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo orTV. This connection provides sound for both the DVD player  
and theVCR. See pages 12-13.  
Before you begin...  
Refer to the manuals of yourTV, Cable Box, Stereo or other devices as necessary. Note the style of jacks and  
connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In channels on your  
other equipment so you can see and hear the DVD/VCR material playing on theTV, Stereo, etc.  
Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to power only after you have finished  
hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment connected to power.  
Remember...  
Set theTV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN, AUDIO/VIDEO or  
A/V IN, EXT1 or External In, etc. These channels often are located near channel zero (0). Or, yourTV’s remote may  
have a button or switch that selects theVideo Input channel. See yourTV manual for details. If you do not see the  
DVD orVCR playback on theTV, go to the lowestTV channel (01 or 02) and change channels downward until you  
see the DVD orVCR picture on theTV. Or, if yourTV has only a single Antenna In jack and you are using the RF  
coaxial cable (as described on page 9), set theTV to channel 3 or 4.  
To help you find the right Audio/Video In channel, turn on the DVD/VCR. Press DVD to put the DVD/VCR in DVD  
mode. With no disc in the player, a large DVDVideo logo will appear on theTV screen when you get theTV on the  
correct Audio/Video In channel or channel 3 or 4.  
Set the Stereo to the correct channel or “source” mode.  
Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables or adaptors. If yourTV or monitor has  
BNC-type connectors, you will need an adaptor.  
To use theVCR features, you must include a connection with the supplied yellow video cable and  
red/white audio cable or with the supplied RF coaxial cable.  
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 9-14. Follow the steps for the hookup  
you choose.Then, go to page 16 to complete the first-time setup.

Out jacks, use audio and video  
cables to connect them to the  
VCR AUDIO IN andVIDEO IN  
jacks on the rear of the  
DVD/VCR. You will not need  
the RF coaxial cable connection  
between the Cable Box/Satellite  
Receiver and the DVD/VCR as  
described at step 2.  
4) Select the channel you want to view/record at the Cable  
Box/Satellite Receiver.  
You may not view a channel other than the one you are recording.  
You can only program a timer recording for one channel at a time.  
Set your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to the channel you want to  
record. When you enter the channel you want to record in a  
timer recording, select channel 03 or 04 (the Cable Box/Satellite  
Receiver output channel). (This is step 8 on page 28.) Leave the  
Cable Box/Satellite Receiver on for a timer recording.

luminance and the color. S-Video only provides a picture for the DVD player of the  
DVD/VCR.  
Tape Speeds: how fast the video cassette travels during a recording or playback. The  
faster the tape speed, the better the picture quality. Slower tape speeds affect picture  
quality, but you can record more onto a videotape.  
SP (Standard Playback) – fastest tape speed (recording time for a T120 tape is  
approximately 2 hours); best picture quality.  
LP (Long Playback) – average tape speed. You cannot record in LP with thisVCR. If  
tapes were recorded on a differentVCR in LP speed, the tape will play in LP on the  
DVD/VCR.  
SLP (Super Long Playback) – slowest tape speed (recording time for a T120 tape is  
approximately 6 hours). This speed allows the maximum recording on a single  
videotape.  
VIDEO IN/OUT Jacks: jacks on the front and back of the DVD/VCR that receive  
video from another source (IN) or send video to other video equipment or a TV  
(OUT). These jacks are yellow.

owners. This technology is used on programs that are recorded on video cassettes or DVDs, as well as some  
programs broadcast by antenna/cable/satellite television channels. Programs broadcast with copyright protection may  
not record clearly. Likewise, if you play a tape that is a recording of a copyright protected program, the picture may  
not be clear. Tapes of copyright protected programs may have a picture that is dark or dim, or the brightness of the  
picture may fluctuate. Therefore, avoid recording or playing copies of copyright protected programs.
