freeview and combo tv video recording hlp req

[fender62]

i have a daewoo gb20f8t2 tv set thats has a built in video
i also have a freeview- pace 543-1005500 box,
the problem is i cannot get my video to record with the freeview connected at all.i cannot find anything in the tv
settings to enable it to record from freeview

firstly how is PACE connected to daewoo? Guess scart?
when you go to recording menu where you select channel (1,2,3,4,5) etc move up/down and look for one that says "AV" or similar...then you have to set the TV timer and set FV box to correct channel etc and should be plain sailing.... (is it a Twin Tuner model Combi?)

the pace is connected via the scart, you mention twin tuner model could you be more specific, in the tv's menu setting all the tuning is done for both tv and video

Are you capable of recording one channel whilst watching another (twin tuner) or can you only record what you watch (single tuner)? Either way if you have a scart input you should be capable of watching/recording the input?

I've just done a quick search on the various daewoo sites and I've come to believe that your combo might be a single tuner as they all seem to be (Don't quote me if I'm wrong). Which means you have to be viewing what you want to record! Do you have a button on your remote which says TV/LINE or TV/AV, if so press this and hopefully it will toggle from ch1,2, etc to whatever you have connected on the front panel/rear scart? Once you have done this it is a case of pressing your record feature. Your guide should have stated this or at least something similar. Remember this is taken from a non UK site so might not work for your model? Let's know how you get on?

with the pace freeview connected i cannot use the original tv's remote anymore it wont work with the pace connected up it takes over tv control
i dont think it has an av button on the pace remote

[hornydragon]

erm the TV remote will surely control volume? in APCE settings menu turn scart control Off..............

[fender62]

yes the pace freeview remote controls most of the basic tv functions

[hornydragon]

but the TV remote will still work and the daewoo remote will have a TV/AV button (look near the coloured text buttons and the top near standby button........)
when you watch FV box and press record button it should record from scart input when setting timers there will be a channel list 1-5 etc go down below channel 0 and it should say AV which will be the scart and then set timer and set FV box to the desired channel.........

[fender62]

the daewoo tv's remote will not work at all with the freview connected, only the freeview remote will work.unless if i take the freeview out and put aerial
back in the daewoo remote will work again, odd

somethiong is wrong there......try turning scart control off on Pace box
