Wanting to record 'Lost' from Sky One tonight, and having problems getting Telewest tuned into the VCR.</p> Got TV ariel going into VCR, and it has found BBC 1 - Channel 5 ok. Then have scart from Telewest to VCR, and another scart from Telewest to TV.</p> What am i doing wrong?</p>
Don't think you need the aerial in the VCR, just the scart. Not sure the VCR will take two feeds in at the same time. Also, is there a setting to tell the VCR which input to use (possibly channel 0 or Aux )?
See, having the scart from the video to TV, the video is currently set up on AV1, with telewest on AV2. Its not on a normal channel, like 0.</p> Its proper confused me.</p>
I think this is what i need to find out... and i'm not too sure it does.</p> Been reading through the internet, apparently if i set the VCR to record from AV1 then that should work fine.</p> Now its just finding channel AV1 on the VCR.</p> Cheers for your help.</p>
usually... if you scroll down the channels below 1 is 0 then Aux, or on the remote there will be an aux button.
RE: Cheers... Try putting Telewest on and seeing what channel it shows as.... e.g. I have Telewest set as number 6. When I press 6 on the remote Telewest actually shows as CH64. So to record from Telewest I set the DVD to CH64....
I have telewest on AV1 though... and when tuning the video it failed to pick it up, it only picked 1-5. Need to see if the video has an AV/Aux channel i think.
RE: I have telewest on AV1 though... On yourremote when manually setting the timer, see if there is a button on your remote that says "input select" or av. Try that if there is one.</p> If not, why dont you have a standard aerial from telewest to vcr like me? If you need really good quality it will need to be scart, mind. But if you dont mind about it being super-duper quality, aerial will work fine. You need telewest aerial to your vcr. Then make sure that you have the telewest box power on, then do a scan through your vcr for channels again. You should then have the channel allocated to possibly ch6.</p>
RE: I have telewest on AV1 though... Cheers everyone. Sorted it. Found the AV button on the remote. Working a treat.</p> </p>
