I connect my VCR directly to the TV. Only the audio out on the VCR is connected to my Denon 3200 receiver.

but what about the video and what do you do when you want to record something do you set the vcr on or what. Don,

I do all my recording directly from my Sat dish into my VCR. The receiver plays no part. When I watch a tape on the VCR, the audio out plays through my receiver.

I used to have a Denon 3200. While I had the S-video going direct to the TV, I also used the composite video through the receiver for video switching. I don't really recall how this works, but I seem to remember something on the onscreen menus which allow you to select the video and audio sources seperately for recording. I think you have to set your "rec video source" and your "rec audio source" and then it will output those paths direct to your recordable outputs (video 1 and video 2).

Hope that helps.

PS - I never actually recorded anything that way, I always went direct via the S-video cables, but when I first hooked up without composites and all through the receiver, that's how it was done.
