As a Scart audio/video cable contains both audio
and video inputs and outputs in one cable, the
Scart connector between the DVD Receiver and
the TV can also be used to lead the audio output
signals of your TV to the DVD Receiver. In this
way your TV programs can be listened to over
your HS sound system.
NOTE: Please make sure that the Scart cable
used has all pins connec ted. If not it could be
that, only the video signal from the DVD Receiver
will be lead to the TV.
