Re: VCR to VCR HELP!!!!	Can't Post

I think you have everything connected OK, but just to make sure, you should have this hookup:
PLAYBACK VCR (output jacks) ---> RECORDING VCR (input jacks)--->
RECORDING VCR (output jacks)----> TV monitor
Set the recording VCR to accept input from its input jacks. How to do this will vary from model to model. Could be a button on the deck, or on the remote, or a setup item in the on-screen menu. If there is a "TV/VCR" button on your remote, set it to "VCR".
Put the tape to be copied in the playback VCR. Turn on the recording deck and the TV. If you hit PLAY on the playback VCR, you should see a picture on the TV. If you don't, something in your setup still isn't right. Check your deck's manual.
Regards,
Doug Graham

:Use the menu on your remotes and select input and set on line out on player and line in on recorder. You may be able to use your channel selector and go down to 2, next should be L-1 or L-2.
One is for front jacks (L-2)if you have them, L-1 is for the back jacks.
