  • Thanks for the replies.

    What I really wanted to do was be able to tune the DVD Recorder in to the TV, for example, my freeview I have tuned in to RF cha 34, my sat is on RF cha 22 even though they are scarted.
    Is there anyway that I can do that with this DVD recorder. If so, where are the settings to change the RF channel.
    I am able to daisy chain the scarts as suggested above but I also want a dedicated channel on the TV

    Does that make sense ???

    Yes, you chaps and chapesses who love birds' nest wiring ...

    TV with two scart sockets ... VCR, Playstation, DVD recorder, digibox. How do you lash it all together?

    Edit: Should have added ...

    VCR (cheapo) one scart
    Digibox TV scart, Video scart

    And I forgot ... I also use a video sender to the other TVs in the house - connected via yet another scart plug. Thing is, in order for it to acquire the signal to send, it has to be connected to a scart output, so it's little use plugging it in to one of these multiway scart adaptors as they are three/four/etc in, and one out to the TV.

    Ho hum - I expect I'll sort it out eventually.

    Actually Droopnout, I don't know what I am laughing at cos I just got one today and will no doubt be back on here later to find out how to set it up  ;)

    Had to wait so long on them finding my one that was reserved I was then late for work and only realised as I drove away that by paying at the machine I didn't get a voucher??  :-[

    Thanks for the sympathy! (?) But hope you weren't in trouble at work.

    Well, I ordered online, and there seemed to be no way to add the cheapo pack of DVDs to the order at the reduced price. Well, no link to anything, anyway.

    The £10 voucher is posted to the delivery address in my case, to arrive no later than 17 December.

  • Ordered one of these on Thurs for home delivery, so I haven't tried any of the region free hacks yet.

    NO

    You will need to buy an RF Modulator to do this.
