Yes, video should be hooked up from the "Monitor Out" RCA jacks on the Yamaha to the input on the TV. If you want sound from the TV speakers, you need to hook up the audio from the amp to the TV. You then select the input on the amp that has the video/audio feed from the VCR. In addition, you have to select the line input on the TV.

aaron, unless you live in an alternate universe from mine (and I suppose Melbourne qualifies :-) ), you should also have red/white/yellow "monitor out" jacks on the receiver (amp). Those should be fed into the TV.

Alternitively, you could just feed the video signal alone directly into the TV from the VCR and feed audio from the VCR into the receiver. That would mean no audio on the TV's speakers. If the receiver is powering external speakers, then that may not be important.
