This has probably been adressed to death, but while I trawl the archives looking for the answer I thought i'd ask directly as well :)
Having never bothered until now, I've realised that I can't videotape
anything shown on Virgin Media.
Despite much switching of cables and scart leads, I haven't been able to get
all my TV devices working in tandem and when I get one component to work, I
knock another one out. Anyone know how to sort this? Here's how it's been
wired up.
DVD player - Direct scart out to scart in on TV (AV2)
VM Box - Co-ax cable feed into box, then scart out to scart in on TV (AV1)
Video - External RF aerial in, co-ax cable out to TV RF aerial port. Video
has 2x scart sockets
There's a video scart socket on my VM box but if I connect the video to that
port through SCART I then lose the VM picture altogether. This means I
currently cannot watch or record VM channels through the video.
I'm sure its something simple, but I cannot for the life of me work it out!
Thx!
