Hi there - I recently got a hold of a Philips VR675/05 VCR to play back old tapes that my family has in storage.
For some weird reason, our TV refuses to receive the signal from the VCR. No video or audio whatsoever when trying to play back tapes, or even just trying to get the VCR's on screen display to appear.
It's plugged in via a SCART to AV adapter then just feeding the AV cables to the inputs on the back of the TV - because the TV lacks any SCART connectors.
I've tried two SCART to AV adapters now, and it just refuses to work with this TV. Both are known good.
When I plug it into another TV directly via SCART, it works fine. This is what confuses me...
I figured I'd ask for help before I just give in and splash the money on a HDMI converter box.
Thanks in advance for any advice given.
