AUDIO CONNECTORS
(As a reminder, the path to the define button vcr 2/disc 2 menu shown above is
main menu/setup/set source buttons/vcr 2/disc 2—but you can get there faster
by pressing and holding the vcr 2/disc 2 button for several seconds.)
defining the video connection The appropriate type: from the define button vcr 2/disc 2 menu this time is a/v.
After having changed type: to a/v and saved the change, you will see an addi-
tional item immediately below type. The video: item establishes which video
connector you wish to associate with a particular button.
1 MOVE TO THE “VIDEO:” ITEM IN THE MENU, PRESS THE ENTER BUTTON
The arrow cursor will change to the “change-it” cursor (
→
).
2 CYCLE THROUGH THE AVAILABLE INPUTS UNTIL YOU SEE THE ONE YOU
USED WHEN HOOKING UP YOUR LASERDISC PLAYER
The AVP2 will cycle through the entire list of available video inputs.
Note: In this and other menus, connectors that are already
associated with another, different button are displayed in
yellow letters instead of white. This is done to keep you
informed as to what inputs might be available.
Now the system knows which video connector to look at when you want to
watch a laserdisc. Next, let’s move to the audio connectors. (You can change the
surround mode default along the way if you like… but you already know how to
do that.)
defining multiple
audio connections
The laserdisc has the greatest potential for confusion, having as it does three pos-
sible connections that may be needed. In addition, multiple versions of the
soundtrack are often present on a single laserdisc requiring some sort of decision
as to which should be used.
Ideally, the system would be able to automatically select the best available
soundtrack and give it to you without your having to become involved personally
in reading the fine print on the laserdisc jacket (and then pushing additional but-
tons) every time you watch a movie.
