Friend's just bought a new cheapo LG vcr (LV 9000 I think).
Connected from the 'Decoder# scart on vcr to the 'vcr' scart on his OnDigital box which is in turn connected to the rgb scart on his TV..
BUT...
He can now no longer get RGB from his OD box (stb), only composite.
Also (and more annoyingly) he cannot record on a terrestrial channel on the vcr and watch a digi channel at the same time!
The TV will not change over to EXT1 for the stb whilst the vcr is even switched on and on a terrestrial channel.
I tried using a scart lead with pin 8 cut and the vcr will either not play at all through the scart or has a right benny and constantly toggles between analog and the digital channel depending on where I put the snipped scat lead in the chain
The vcr remote has a 'TV/VCR' button which according to the manual seems to be what I'm looking for but doesn't do anything.
What should be a simple vcr/stb scart set up (which I have done plenty of before) has turned into a real PAIN!
Any ideas?
Thanks
