Line Input on *Choice DSR-530

[BigFella]

Anyone know how to access the line 1 input on the front panel? I've gone through the owners manual and I can't find the instructions to switch to it. Can you access it, or was it put there for "future use" and never activated?

I was curious about this myself as I have a 530 sitting here in the box as yet unactivated. My 505 does not have the inputs. I did a search at Digital Home and found this. If you get it to work let us know.

Thanks for the response and link Hiker - I'll give it a shot...

Success!

The camera I have plugged into the front input works just fine. Not much is said about this input in the manual, but passes the video and audio from the little security camera I have plugged into it. I use the "input" button on the remote to switch back and forth between the 530 DVR and the camera. Works great with the Slingbox when I'm out of town. Now to get Sling to create a decent remote for the DSR 530 (there are currently no DVR functions on my Sling Box's limited virtual remote)...
