Chapter 1: Connections and Setup
Explanation of Input Jacks and Cables
This section describes the jacks and cables you can use to make connections.  Some cables are supplied with your product or you can purchase other cables 
by calling 
1-800-338-0376, order online at www.rca.com, or go to your local electronics store). There are several ways to connect your DVD recorder to your TV 
depending upon the cables you have and the jacks that are on the back of your TV. 
Different jacks and cables provide a different level of performance. It’s important to remember, we’re talking about degrees of picture improvement for 
comparison. If your TV has Component jacks (Y, Pb, Pr), S-VIDEO, and composite video (often color-coded yellow); Component (Y, Pb, Pr), would be 
considered excellent, S-Video would be very good, and the composite video jack (yellow) would be considered good.
Component Video (Y, Pb, Pr) Jacks and Cables
The Y, Pb, Pr jacks provide optimum picture quality because the video is separated into three signals 
(two signals are dedicated to the color portion of the image, and the other signal is dedicated to the 
black and white part of the image).
To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables (not supplied) for the connection. 
You can purchase bundled component video cables that are color-coded to match the Y, Pb, Pr jacks 
(red, green, and blue). Component Video Input jacks are usually found on high-end TVs, such as 
HDTVs; multimedia monitors; and some of the “fl at” LCD and Plasma TVs or monitors.
Notes:
Also, remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the Y, Pb, Pr 
jacks and cables carry only the picture signal, not the sound.
S-Video Jacks and Cables
The S-Video (separate video) jack provides better picture quality than a composite video jack 
(sometimes labeled VIDEO and color-coded yellow on TVs) because S-Video keeps the color part of 
the picture separate from the black and white part of the picture. If your TV has an S-VIDEO jack, 
connect the DVD recorder to the TV with an S-Video cable for a better quality picture. 
Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the S-Video 
cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.
Audio/Video Jacks and Cables (RCA-type)
Video
The basic Video jack (usually color-coded yellow) is also referred to as composite video. Composite 
video doesn’t keep color information separated (like S-Video), but it’s better than the video quality 
you get from an RF coaxial cable (the type used to connect a cable signal or off-air antenna).
Audio
These jacks are used to send the audio from the disc you’re playing in the DVD recorder to the TV. 
The audio jacks and cables (supplied) are often color-coded (red for right audio, and white for left 
audio). You must connect audio cables to the AUDIO L and R jacks on the DVD recorder and the 
corresponding Audio Input Jacks on the TV no matter which Video jack you connect (VIDEO; 
S-VIDEO; Y, Pb, Pr).
Note: If your TV has only one input for audio (mono), connect it to the left (white) 
audio jack on the DVD recorder and don’t connect the right (red) audio part of the 
cable.
HDMI™ OUTPUT   (High-Defi nition Multimedia Interface) 
Provides an uncompressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data to your TV by way 
of an integrated mini-plug cable (HDMI cable not supplied). When connected to a compatible high 
defi nition digital TV, the DVD recorder will convert standard defi nition signals to higher resolution 
(high defi nition) signals.
Note: If your HDTV set has a DVI input and is HDCP (High Defi nition Copy 
Protection) compatible, you can connect your recorder to the TV using an optional 
HDMI cable and HDMI/DVI adapter. Remember to connect the left and right audio 
cables because the DVI cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.
