...its when the V+Box tells me to connect the Recorder. Then the V+options dissapear and the Philips window appears ...
think the Philips has sensed the activity on scart and switched its self on - this in turn has activated the scart to TV and switched your channel over
either make sure the Philips is switched on before you use V+ record menu or
de-activate the philips setting for active-on-scart
Sorry this is the first time I have used this forum.
you will find that most forums would say the same fella.

Is there anyone that has been successful in transferring a recorded programme to a DVD through a DVD Recorder. I can Record direct from the TV no problem and I can go through the menu to the point where I transfer a recorded to the to the copy side. This is when the problems start I do as the window says put in Pin No = Done then I get totally confused it says turn on DVD press Record button and then press the yellow button which I do but evertime I get a recording of what is on the TV at the time I am sure its something to do with the sequance of the buttons on the remote I can tell you its very frustrating when it doesnt work I welcome any help thanks BoB
Yes I am sure the Scart Leads are in the correct position as I have spoke to a adviser at Virgin about the problem but he totally confused me and it was not resolved. I am sure its to do with the way I press the various buttons I seem to get so far and when I get to the point when it says copy to DVD and I have to switch the Recorder on and then press the record button it only records the chosen channel not the saved recording thanks BoB
Make sure that the recorder is already "on". Then you only meed to hit "record" when you want to capture the output of the box - i.e. once it starts streaming the chosen output.
Also make sure that the DVD recorder is set to record from AV-2 (or whatever the appropriate SCART is).
Can I say thanks to you all your help on my problem trying to transfer a recorded programme to a DVD I am now happy to say its been resolved no thanks to Virgin once again many thanks BOB England
