Here are some quick connection directions on how to hook up your two units for dubbing videos. I have received several emails on how to do the deed. So... here it is.

OK, The Player unit should always be your best quality player of the two. The other unit will be the recorder. You want your best signal going out to the recorder. If it's a nasty signal it doesn't really matter how good the recorder is... does it.

Connections: use example above for connection reference.

RCA Jacks...
*From the player connect the audio out (red arrow) to Recorder units audio in.  *From the Player connect the video out (blue arrow) to the Recorder units video in.

Coax Cables...
*From the Player  connect the Coax Out (purple arrow) to Recorder units Coax In. 
*From your external source (cable connection or  satellite output) connect it to the Players Coax In (green arrow) connection. 
*From the Player unit connect the Recorder units Coax Out (brown arrow) to the television coax connection. Generally there is only one Coax connection on the TV. There may be outputs there for connecting to a receiver unit or another recording device. 

Now, make sure your VCR's are set in the back to the same channel, 3 or 4. You will have to make sure that the television will be on the same channel when using the set-up.  Do some test recording to see how things work. Your Recording VCR may need to be set-up for the line-in mode. Generally, you can use the remote and channel down to channel two. Continue pressing the down channel and the unit will/should go into the line-in mode. Now you will be watching on the television what is running through the Player VCR. 

NOTE: Do some test recording to figure out which VCR is your best recorder, and which is your best player. If the best of both is the same unit, make it the player unit and the other, the recorder. Your recording is going to be based on your best signal, that's the player.

You are now set-up for some serious dubbing folks. Enjoy...
