Hi I am trying to add a VCR to muy home theatre setup(as well as get my DVD player back up and running) and am not having any luck. The VCR (JVC HR-J692U) has only composite outputs on the back (and standard Coax input)

The system I am trying to add this to includes

RCA RT2370 HT Receiver
PRIMA TV with S-Video Component and Composite IN
XBOX (using Component IN on TV and Optical(switched) IN on Receiver
Motorola DCT2500 (Using Orange DigitalCoax on Receiver) and currently s-video for viewing
RCA 5 disk DVD player using optical (switched) IN on Receiver (Video is not currently hooked to anything(I;'m confused as to hwo this should work. I tried to hook it to the DVD IN on the Receiver but realized I was one s-video cable short so it is currently not hooked up.


How can I hook this situation up so I can watch my DVDs and also tape TV on my VCR. I can currently view VHS tapes but it is not hooked into the cable. All diagrams I have seen show inputs and outputs on the VCR.

HELP
