Well its actually for my mother... but I got her a new MVD4544 (Memorex DVD/VCR combo) from Target and hooked it up to her tv. It hooked up just fine and it plays DVD's and tapes just fine.

Darned if I can figure out how to record onto a tape though!

I followed the set up instructions, the cable goes from my wall to my tv, then I hooked up the SV Cable and audio into the correct jacks. Then I hooked up the regular video in and audio in and out into the back where the manual says.

I hit record and nothing happens. No tv show is recorded. I tried it on several different tapes.

The instructions just say to put a tape into the VCR and hit record, after setting the input to AV1 or AV2, I tried it on both AV's.

I am confused! Help!

I read somewhere else that I might need a cable box? Currently our cable just comes out of the wall and hooks in directly to the tv.
