HELP!!!!!
The three colored wires on the PS1 should be yellow, red, and white. The Yellow is the Video cable, the red and the white are the two audio cables for stereo sound.
If your VCR is as I expect, one set of audio and video jacks are input and one set are output jacks. Since your VCR only has one audio jack, it has mono sound.
Just plug the yellow video cable from the ps1 into the video IN jack on your vcr and plug the red audio cable into the audio IN jack on the vcr. You won't get stereo sound this way, but your vcr doesn't support it anyway.
Many components with stereo sound will allow you to get all of the sound by using the red cable to connect to a mono device, but I am not sure if ps1 does or not. To make sure you don't loose any of the sounds, you could go to radio shack or maybe walmart and get a Y-connector that will allow you to connect the red and white cable together into one plug which can then be plugged into the VCR audio IN jack.
I hope this helps some.
