I have a DVD/ VCR player that was connected to a smaller TV before the digital tv transition. I no longer use that TV and want to use the DVD/VCR player on another TV that is connected to a converter box. A simple answer would be appreciated.

Answer
There are 3 ways. First, the easiest:

Antenna to converter coaxial "in" jack. Converter coaxial "out" jack to the DVD/VCR player coaxial "in jack. Player coaxial "out" jack to the TV's antenna jack. Put the tuner in the player and also the TV on channel 3 and leave them there permanently. Use the remote for the converter to change channels.

Also good: Antenna to converter coaxial "in" jack. Converter coaxial "out" jack to the DVD/VCR player coaxial "in jack. Player composite "out" jacks (yellow-red-white) to the composite jacks on the back of the TV. Player permanently on channel 3 as above. Select the composite input on the TV with its own remote.

This works too if the player has composite input jacks (some do but not all): Antenna to converter coaxial "in" jack. Converter composite output jacks to the composite "in" jacks on the player. Composite "out" jacks on the player to the composite input on the TV. Select that input with the TV remote as above.

I have a RCA HD TV, SV 2000 digital dvd/vcr player,Apex digital home theater system, directv cable box, and a Liteon dvd recorder. I have not been able to connect them since I got them a year ago.I was told I had to buy a dvd recorder in order to record movies I watched on cable because the SV 2000 was just for playing.Can you tell me,(the absolutely not technically inclined person) in simple terms how to connect these componants?

Answer
scart sockets are simple and less complicated.buy a 4 plug scart box cost about £9.99 plug DVD VCR into 1 scart socket plug home theater into 2 socket any cable or free view into 3rd socket the scart box has its own scart so plug this into the aux scart port on the back of DVD recorder.all of your appliances can know be recorded onto DVD.last thing run a scart lead from DVD recorder to TV and run a white and red phono cable from the red and white socket of TV to your home theater so that anything that is on TV will have sound on theater system.
