How to set up a combination VCR & DVD Cable box to a TV?

Tv hooking up to dvd-vcr (no tuner) cable only (no box) with dvd player with tuner?

• I have a new Sanyo 42" with all the connections available. I do not have the cable box, so am not viewing as HDMI at this time or using any HDMI cables either. I have plenty of red and yellow calbes for use though, splitters, lots of coaxle cable parts too. I lost the reciept to the Magnavox dvd/vcr player and bought it a few months ago and just decided to use it, with now a problem I was unaware of when I bought it, no tuner. I have a Magnavox ZV427MG9A, that doesnt come with a tuner. It has no coxale cable input, it has other inputs outputs (video, audio and a bunch of other inputs. II have my older dvd player that has a tuner. Can I run the cable into the older dvd player, out that to the other non tuner dvd/vcr player and have it record etc normally and be able to watch one channel and record another??

• Answer:

  Hook the dvd with tuner to the tv with an hdmi cable for the best sound and video Hook the dvd-vcr to the tv with the best cable possible, the tv has the tuner so you should be able to set the timer to record or push record while your watching tv. Most nice tv's have 2 hdmi ports If you want to copy a dvd that's in your dvd with tuner, and the disc can be copied, all you have to do is run a cable from the Line one output to the input of the dvd/vcr. You might have to put in a switch box to keep from changing cables but you probably will only record from the tv. Most disc's that you rent are copy proof.
