CHAPTER 1

A/V Connection (Better Quality)

Using the A/V cable, connect the white, red and yellow plugs from one end of the A/V cable to the

AUDIO L (white) and R (red) and VIDEO (yellow) output jacks on the back of the DIRECTV Plus

Receiver. Connect the other end of the A/V cable to the corresponding A/V input jacks on your TV.

If hooking up a VCR, using another A/V cable, connect the white, red and yellow plugs from

one end of the A/V cable to the AUDIO L (white) and R (red) and VIDEO (yellow) output

jacks on the back of the DIRECTV Plus Receiver. Connect the other end of the A/V cable to the

corresponding input jacks on your VCR.

Then, run an A/V cable from the VCR’s A/V output to the TV’s A/V inputs. This will allow you

to watch videotapes. NOTE: If your TV only has one set of A/V input jacks, this connection can

also be made by running a RF cable from the VCR’s out to TV jack to the TV’s antenna in jack.

Now, continue on page 14, “Connecting Your DIRECTV Plus Receiver to Your Telephone Line.”

To switch between watching

your VCR and watching video

from your receiver, you may

need to program the INPUT key

on your DIRECTV Remote. (See

page 18 for info.) Some TVs also

have a menu button that allows

you to change the video source

using an onscreen menu. If you

have trouble changing the video

source, refer to the instructions

that came with your TV.

TIP

Note

If your TV only has one audio input jack use AUDIO L (white) jack on the back of the DIRECTV Plus Receiver to make

the connection.
