TV/DVD/Sky+/Video set up

Since moving into our new house nearly six months ago, we have never managaed to get the TV etc working properly.

The Sky+ and TV work fine, the DVD works when it wants to and the Video never works!

Can someone confirm the correct route the wires should take - they all accept scart leads and there is an outside aerial.

I would say what the set up is at the minute - but I cant move the TV to get to the wires!

Many thanks,

    DVD>>TV (scart 1)

    VCR>>Sky Box>>TV (Scart2)

    Aerial>>Sky Box>>VCR>>TV.

    You might have to put the Sky box on standby when using the VCR.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
