To take full advantage of the movie theater experience  
that DVD offers, you may want to connect your DVD-  
VCR to a complete Surround Sound system, including  
an A/V Receiver and six Surround Sound speakers.  
If your A/V receiver is equipped with a Dolby Digital

DVD-VCR using audio/video cables if the appropriate  
outputs are available on the equipment chosen.  
Examples : • You wish to copy a video cassette with  
the help of a second VCR.  
You wish to play back and/or copy  
pictures taken with a camcorder  
• Make sure that both the external devices  
and the DVD-VCR are switched off  
before connecting the cables.  
Connect a Digital Audio coaxial cable from the  
1
Digital Audio Out jacks on the panel of the DVD-  
VCR to their corresponding Digital Audio Input  
jacks on your A/V Receiver:  
Connect one end of the video cable into the  
VIDEO input jack on the front of the DVD-VCR.

Plug the other end of the video cable into the  
appropriate output connector on the other  
system (VCR or Camcorder etc).

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends  
on the rate of compression/decompression you

an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion

160Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like  
192Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound  
quality. Conversely, files with decompression

interference, it may be due to the DVD-VCR  
output channel clashing with the normal  
TV transmissions in your area.
