got video games but no video jacks on the tv?
March 21, 2002 · Print This Article
if you have a relatively modern VCR, you can use your VCR to allow you to play your N-64 or other game system that uses line-level inputs (those red and white jacks that look like what goes into a stereo).
most recent VCRs have two sets of in/out jacks - one set with a threaded “cable” connection or “coax” connection, and set of red, white, and yellow RCA jacks - the things that look like tape deck connections. The yellow jack is for video and the red and white are for right and left audio channels.
if you use the coaxial connections “out to TV,” for your television, you can run a video game into the VCR using the RCA “in from ant” jacks. then you put the TV on the ch 3 or 4 (whichever your VCR is set for), turn on the VCR and set it to “tune” ch 3 or 4 (whichever the VIDEO game console is set for), then turn on the video game.
who says you need that $30 RF adapter?
