Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with
ColorStream ® (component video] and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV), VCR, and
TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs.
Your TV has ColorStream (component video) inputs. Connecting
your TV to a DTV receiver with component video can greatly
enhance picture quality and realism.
- To record and watch a DTV program, select LINE IN on the
VCR, and select ColorStream HD2 (or VIDEO 1 for a non-
ColorStream connection) on the TV (see "Selecting the antenna
input" on page 20).
- To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the
VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD2 on the
TV.
- To record and watch the same TV program, tune the VCR to the
channel to record, and select VIDEO 1 on the TV.
- To record one T-V program while watching another TV program,
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the
channel to watch.
