There are several ways to connect your DVD-VCR. Select one of the following antenna connections that best  
suits you below.  
Method 1: Antenna + DVD-VCR + TV: No Cable box

If you are using an off-air antenna that has 300-ohm twin flat leads, use an external  
antenna connector (300-75 ohm adaptor: not supplied) to connect the antenna to the  
DVD-VCR.  
If you have two separate antennas (one VHF and the other UHF), use a UHF/VHF  
combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops) to connect the antenna to the  
DVD-VCR.  
The RF OUT(TO TV) jack of this product sends signals received through the antenna  
and outputs Audio/Video signals.

DVD OPERATIONS  
MP3/WMA file  
When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R/Memory Card, please refer to the following.  
- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660  
or JOLIET format.  
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least  
64Kbps when recording WMA files.  
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files  
are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and  
Windows, and with Apple's Mac. This format is  
the most widely used. Memory Cards over 4GB  
use FAT32, which may not be compatible with  
this unit.  
Sound quality with WMA files basically depends  
on the rate of compression/decompression you  
choose.  
Getting CD audio sound requires an  
analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion  
to WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to  
192Kbps.  
- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not  
exceed 8 characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma”  
as the file extension.  
Conversely, files with decompression rates  
below 64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be  
played properly.  
General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma.  
When composing your title, make sure that you  
use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the  
name, and avoid the use of special characters  
including: (.,/,\,=,+).  
- Do not try recording copyright protected  
MP3 files.  
Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code  
protected to prevent illegal copying. These files  
are of the following types: Windows MediaTM  
(registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and  
SDMITM (registered trade mark of The SDMI  
Foundation). You cannot copy such files.  
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least  
128 Kbps when recording MP3 files.  
Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends  
on the rate of compression/decompression you  
choose. Getting CD audio sound requires an  
analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion  
to MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to  
160 Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like  
192  
- Important:  
The above recommendations cannot be taken  
as a guarantee that the DVD-VCR will play MP3  
recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.  
You should note that certain technologies and  
methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs  
prevent optimal playback of these files on your  
DVD-VCR (degraded sound quality and in some  
cases, inability of the player to read the files).  
Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound  
quality. Conversely, files with decompression  
rates below 128 Kbps will not be played  
properly.  
- This unit can play a maximum of 3000 files and  
300 folders per disc.
