Hi Have a Panasonic DVD recorder DMR-EX98VEB.
I have connected as follows:-

Virgin+ Box Connected via SCART VCR to AV2 on DVD recorder.

DVD Recorder connected as follows:-
HDMI lead to TV
AV1 to TV
AV2 to Virgin+ Box

I am connecting on A2 on the DVD Recorder.

So I can see TV fine I can change channels and even pause however cant see TV listings or click through into Virgin+ services anymore.

I would be really grateful if someone could tell me the exact settings to get this all working.

Many thanks
Peppe

Can you just clarify how you have connected your V+ to your TV?

V+ is not connected direct to TV.
HMDI lead runs from DVD to TV.
Only lead coming out of Virgin+ box is SCART VCR to AV2 on DVD.
Many thanks

Could you try adding a connection directly from your V+ to your TV as that may be the problem.

You really should have the V+ connected to the TV directly using an HDMI lead or you won't receive any HD channels.

Have you tried resetting the V+?

You should note that when you have HDMI connected Scart & RF are disabled and when you connect Scart & RF, HDMI is connected.
