Bump!

I have a GO Video (Model DV1030) combo DVD-VCR. When trying to set up my Direct TV remote control to operate the DVD-VCR, the codes provided in the Direct TV guide (20783 and 20715 for DVD; 20432 for VCR) do not work. I sent an email to GO Video, but so far, have hear nothing from them. Does anyone have codes that will work for my unit? Thanks for sharing.

They should be. Chances are both the DVD player and the Video Player use both use a Yellow RCA connector for the video signal along with Red & White RCA connectors for Stereo audio. It should be as simple as disconnecting the cables from the back of the video player and plugging them into the back of the DVD player. That being said, you really want to check if the TV has an S-Video connector. This cable would replace the Yellow RCA cable from the DVD player, and would be a significant improvement in picture quality.

Short answer; match Outs to Ins. One of the "Out" connectors on the back of the satellite box should connect to an "In" on the TV. If you want the VCR in the middle so you can record from satellite, the Sat "Out" goes to the VCR "In" (or antenna) and the VCR "Out" (or TV) goes to the TV. Much longer answer; It depends upon what different types of connections you have, how picky you are about video quality, and how many inputs your TV can take. Component video is higher quality than S-video, which is higher quality than Coax. You may or may not have to take pictures or describe whats on the back of all the boxes.
