Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with
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 inputs can greatly
enhance picture quality and realism.

VCR, and select ColorStream HD-2 (or VIDEO 1 for a non-
ColorStream connection) on the TV (see "Selecting the antenna
input" on page 21).
- To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the
VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD-2 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 TV program while watching another TV program,
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the
channel to watch.
