Connecting additional devices
You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the
S-VIDEO IN , Video in , IN COMPONENT VIDEO and the IN L AUDIO R , IN AUDIO
LR jacks on the recorder. Switching between jack S-VIDEO IN and Video in is done
automatically. In case both jacks are occupied, the signal at jack S-VIDEO IN is given priority.
Can I also connect other devices with 'Progressive scan'?
The IN COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are only used for 'interlaced'
signals. Signals using progressive scan cannot be processed by the DVD
Recorder.
