9. Connecting video camera or television game

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video
output terminal (composite) on the device to the VIDEO 4 IN
jacks on the TX-DS787. If there is an S video output terminal on
the device, connect it to the S VIDEO 4 VIDEO CAM INPUT jack
using an S video cable.

6. Connecting a satellite tuner or television

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video
output terminal (composite) on the satellite tuner or television to
the VIDEO 3 IN jacks on the TX-DS787. If there is an S video
output terminal on the satellite tuner or television, connect it to the
S VIDEO 3 IN jack using an S video cable. If the satellite tuner or
television has component video outputs, connect them to one of
the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio
output terminal on the satellite tuner or television to the same
VIDEO 3 IN audio jacks on the TX-DS787. Make sure that you
properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right
channel to the R jack.

If the satellite tuner or television has a digital output jack as well,
be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT
(COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-
DS787 depending on the type of connector on the set top box or
television.

With the initial settings of the TX-DS787, the VIDEO 3 input
source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 2 jack. If the digital
connection is made at a jack different from the initial settings, this
must be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup

→ Audio Setup →

Digital Input (see page 34).

7. Connecting a DVD recorder or other digital

video recording device

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video
output terminal (composite) on the device to the VIDEO 1 IN
jacks on the TX-DS787 and video input terminal to the VIDEO 1
OUT jacks. If there is an S video input/output terminal on the
device, connect it to the S VIDEO 1 IN/OUT jack using an S video
cable. If the device has component video outputs, connect them to
one of the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio
output terminal on the device to the same VIDEO 1 IN audio jacks
on the TX-DS787 and audio input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT
audio jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel
to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also
connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL
INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS787 depending on the type
of connector on the device.

With the initial settings of the TX-DS787, the VIDEO 1 input
source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 2 jack. If the digital
connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed at the
OSD Menu: Input Setup

→ Audio Setup → Digital Input (see page

34).

If the device also has a digital input jack, it can be connected to the
DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS787 for
digital recording of the source for REC OUT at the TX-DS787.

8. Connecting a television monitor or projector

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video
input terminal (composite) on the monitor to one of the
MONITOR OUT jacks on the TX-DS787. If there is an S video
input terminal on the monitor, connect it to the S VIDEO
MONITOR OUT jack using an S video cable. If the device has
component video inputs, connect them to the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

Caution:

Note that the OSD Menu will only be displayed on the monitor
connected to MONITOR OUT and not those connected to the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
