Hi, my parents have recently bought a Samsung Hi 8 Camcorder (model VPW70). They have a Hitachi TV (model C36WF810N) and a Panasonic Video (model NVFJ710). If I connect the Camcorder to the TV either through a scart socket of using the yellow & white connectors on the front of the TV I can see the camcorder playing back. However, If I then try to record from the TV using the correct input ie AV1 or AV2 the VHS only records a pale grey screen and not the camcorder playback.
I can connect the camcorder direct to the VHS and record the camcorder image but I can then only monitor/ edit the playback through the camcorder eyepiece. What am I doing wrong?!! I want to be able to view the image on the TV whilst recording to VHS so I or my dad can edit the home videos.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received, thanks.
