eurovox max blue to vcr

[gerryg]

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere(can`t see it!) Can anyone tell me how to wire up my eurovox to my tv and vhs vcr so that I can record.
I have a spare scart lead at back of eurovx marked vcr. I take it this is used in some capacity. Is it a case of scart in vhs video to eurovox? but then what do i need to connect vcr to tv so that it can pick up the box channels from tv?

Sorry if this sounds a bit daft, but have tried a few different permutations without success. i think I may need another cable as well as scart leads???

Any info would be gratefully appreciated.

Has your vcr got 2 scart connections?
Easiest way is to connect them using a rf cable from the tv/vcr on back of eurovox to the antenna on back of vcr then tune in the vcr until it finds the eurovox channel.

my vcr has only one scart socket. Does this mean i am unable to video anything from my box?

No you'll just have to connect it using the old standard cable as mentioned in my previous post...cost you about £2

I forgot people still owned vhs recorders in this digital age , but try as Ronster says using the standard airel output ( rf ) from the eurovox to your video and tune it in on channel 6 , then you should be able to record.

yes i know, not many of us still have vhs but I have lots of old tapes. I have the cable that ronster put up on screen. I only have 1 available socket (out) on my vcr as i have an ariel cable going into the (in) socket.Dont know if this is normal but this was the only way it would tune into tv.
So I put the rf cable into the out socket at back of video and the tv/vcr socket at back of box?. I also have another 2 sockets available at back of eurovox (ant) and (loop out)

[ronster]

put the aeriel from the vcr into the ant input on your eurovox
a cable fron the tv/vcr to the aeriel on the vcr

Sorry to come back to you on this guys. Done exactly as Ronster instructed and got my box tuned in no bother, the only problem is I have a lot of white noise/sound/hissing whatever it is called on the box video channel. The picture is perfect. Any suggestions.



As I said picture is perfect whitesound /hissing is quite audible although still able to hear programmes. Will this sound come across on anything i tape from this channel.?
