To perform tape editing, set the TV to the video input intended for
playback by pressing TV/VIDEO on the remote control.
You may need to change the video input on your VCR. Consult

S VIDEO connection instead of the video cable (yellow) on your
combined A/V cable.

provide audio, so audio cables must be connected to provide
sound.
