Hello every one, I'm a newbie; this is my first posting. I have a problem, but first let me tell you what I have. LG DVD HDD recorder Model RH278; LG LCD TV model 26LC2R, and for what it's worth a Sharp 4-head VCR model VC-AA550
I live in a block of flats with a communal satellite receiving system. Here in South Africa we use the PAL system. The reception is absolutely perfect. No problems there.
The problem comes when I record something on the DVD or VCR recorder. Lots of parallel horizontal lines are present, (not wavy lines) which can be seen if you monitor the recording on Component 1 and these lines are recorded, spoiling the viewing. Viewing satellite on AV2 or land transmissions directly is perfect.
I'm sure it's some sort of clash; beating up against each other but I can't get rid of it no matter what I do. Briefly I'll describe how it's wired:-
Satellite and terrestrial antennae go into the decoder. All wiring is correct going in the following sequence:- RF going from decoder to VCR to DVD to TV. Both DVD and VCR have perfect reception on terrestrial, but when attempting to record a satellite channel, the lines appear.
HELP please!!
Larry
