Recording
This section explains how to record the input source and
how to record audio and video from separate sources.
Notes:
• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot
be recorded.
• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to the multichannel DVD input
cannot be recorded.
•Various restrictions apply to digital recording. Refer to
the manuals supplied with your digital recording
equipment for more details.
• Digital input signals are output by only the digital out-
puts, and analog input signals are output by only the
analog outputs. There is no internal conversion from
digital to analog or vice versa.
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t
attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.
Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cas-
sette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT or
DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT jacks. Video sources can be
recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVD recorder)
connected to the to VIDEO 1 OUT or VIDEO 2 OUT
jacks. See pages 22 to 36 for hookup information.
Note:
• If you select another input source during recording,
that input source will be recorded.
You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by
simultaneously recording audio and video from two sep-
arate sources. This is possible because only the audio
source is switched when an audio-only input source,
such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video
source remains the same.
In the following example, audio from the CD player con-
nected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder con-
nected to the Video 4 Input Video jack are recorded by
the VCR connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.
Recording the Input Source

Use the input selector buttons to
select the source that you want
to record.
See “Which Connections Should I
Use?” on page 23 to see which signals
can be output and recorded.
You can watch the source while record-
ing. The AV receiver’s Volume control
has no effect on recording.

ing.
