Connecting up
Using other types of video
output
This recorder has standard (composite), S-
video and component video outputs. The
main difference between them is the quality
of the picture. S-video delivers a better
picture than composite video, while
component video gives better picture quality
still. The variety of outputs also gives you the
flexibility of connecting your particular
equipment using the best connection type
available.
