Connecting a SONY camcorder to a Samsung TV

Solved
Coriandres83 -  

Hello everyone,

I would like to "play" my tapes on my television. I have a SONY HANDYCAM VIDEO 8 XR (CCD-TRV27E PAL) that I recovered and I have a SAMSUNG television. What cable should I buy? Thank you in advance for your help and advice. I am attaching the connections of my television and my camcorder.

    Hello and welcome to this forum,

    Your camcorder has a video output: yellow RCA and a mono audio output gray RCA

    So plug

    the yellow RCA into the "AV in yellow" input on your TV

    The gray RCA into the "Audio L" white input on the TV

    You can buy this type of cable:

    And of course you won't use the red RCAs

      Hello,

      These are cables with RCA connectors... it's standardized... Yellow = Video, red = Right audio, and white = Left audio

      In your case, there seems to be only one audio cable... So the sound is not stereo, but monophonic...

      Here is an example of these cables, identical at both ends... https://www.boulanger.com/ref/8001909

      So... with this you connect your camcorder to your TV while respecting the colors... and with your remote, you select the A/V input on the TV.

      And it should work with the camcorder in playback mode...
