Help !! have just purchased a new twin scart freeview box to add to my ever increasing list off silver boxes beneath the tv !!
question is ??
what goes to what and where first ??!!
okay have the antenna lead comming in to where first ??
1/ freeview box 2/ dvd 3/vcr ??
then obviuosly I will have to link up my vcr / dvd and tv by use off the scart sockets, the tv itself has two scart sockets and have purchased an extra 2 scart adapter box just incase I require another socket in all this ??
the scart sockets on the freeview box are marked for tv and the other vcr/dvd, just dont know what comes first in the connection series ??
have tried the freeview box out on its own plugged into the tv, and it found all channels okay so I know it is working and a signal can be received from this location !! just need to know how to link them all together now ??!!
anyone been there done that help me out ?? would be appreciatted !!!
