Keep the VCR away from the TV if the picture or sound is affected.
About S video input Video input and output signals can be separated into Y (luminance or brightness) and C (chroma or color) signals, Usually these two signals are combined in a VCR and sent as one signal to a TV. Separation of the Y and G signals prevents them from interfering with one another, thereby improving picture (especially in color) quality. This unit is equipped with an S video input jack through which these separated signal can be input directly.
