Since we now have a Hi Def LCD tv, we were told we should up grade our DVD and VCR players into a combo that has hi def capabilities with an upload of 1080. Did a search and came up with a number of brands some of which I'm familiar with and some I'm not. Prices are all over the place. Any one own a combo or can give me some recommendations? Thanks.

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.

It will work, but you will get only the left channel audio and will be missing the right channel of audio.

I need help. I bought a new 42 inch screen Magnavox HD TV set. We are a member of the Direct TV Satellite Cable Network. The dish is outside of the house with a coaxil cable entering the home to a black box that sits beside the TV. A coaxil cable leaves the black box to a Power Surge Protector Electrical strip. Another coaxil cable leaves this connection to the TV back input area. The TV channels, volume, etc are controlled by the handheld Dish Remote Control. The Magnovox TV remote is not used. I have a Symphonic DVD Player and the red, white, yellow wire set and its own remote control. I have an Emerson VCR with a coaxil connector wire and its own remote controller. I do not know where to connect the VCR coaxil wire to the TV. The TV set has overall, 3 sites for the colored wire connection ports. (1) an area on the left side near the back of the screen for the yellow,red,white connection, and 2 separate areas called line 1 and line 2 connections (but a double set of plugs of red, white and yellow colored ports in this assembly)which is very confusing. Which row do I use? Goal: I want to know how to connect the VCR and the DVD. They are to be used separately. Do I hook up these 2 separately at the varied colored port areas, and they run independently with their remotes? Do I connect to the black box? Do I run the DVD through the back out hook-up of colored ports to the colored inports at the VCR front area and connect to the TV via a coaxil somehow?....Is the black box involved or bypassed? Please keep the insructions simple. The 3 sets of appliance directions are too confusing. I am having trouble with each appliance and the individual directions are not helpful to me with the currently used Direct TV Dish system. Thank you in advance.
