Philips DVDR615 User Manual

Connecting the satellite receiver using a
cinch or an S-video cable
You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, and the like
to the S-VIDEO (Y/C) or VIDEO (CVBS) input sockets and the L AUDIO R audio sockets.
Switching between sockets S-VIDEO (Y/C) and VIDEO (CVBS) is done automatically.
The aerial cable must be connected to the satellite receiver and the DVD recorder.
Connect the DVD recorder directly to the TV set (cable from the S-VIDEO (Y/C) OUT,
VIDEO (CVBS) OUT output sockets is directly connected to the TV set). If there is a video
recorder or an additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the
copy protection system built into the DVD recorder.
Connecting additional devices only via
aerial cable
If you want to connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver...) only via aerial cable, please
observe the following:
The DVD-Recorder must be connected directly to the TV set. If there is a video recorder or an
additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection
system built into the DVD-Recorder.
The additional device (satellite receiver) must be connected before the DVD recorder (additional
device - DVD recorder - TV set). Only the TV set must be connected to the TV OUT jack.
•) If there is interference in the picture when the satellite receiver is switched on, a TV
broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the
satellite receiver. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 3, satellite receiver also on channel 3). In this
case, change the channel of the satellite receiver. Consult the instruction manual of the satellite
receiver,
You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder tO be able to record TV programmes
from the satellite receiver,
•) Switch on the additional device during the installation of the DVD recorder. During the
automatic channel search, the channel on which the additional device is transmitting will be
stored as a TV channel.
