Hi I'm trying to connect a MAGNAVOX DVD/VCR model # DV225MG9 to a analog t.v. that has a RCA model DTA800 DTV converter box.
The converter box works fine, until I try to hook up the magnavox combo. The dvd side works great, all aspects .
But when I try to switch to vcr functions , the vcr freezes no tracking , no off /on ,reject ect. But if I shut off tv eject,play, and ect will work but only with tv off . so I can place a vhs ( prerecorded tape ) in, press play,either with remote or manuely turn on the tv and the play back is so distorted it is unwatchable.. I took the combo to a analog tv w/o dt converter box and it worked as it should both vcr and a seperate dvd player..Thanks for any suggestions Mike

How do u hooking up this thing,up by a AV component video RYW signal cable to an analog tv,a LCD,plasma tvs or an a HDMI cable to a LCD or a plasma tvs?More informations please?
I have this model..was trying to hook it up to a directv hughes receiver. After a day of trying and many curse words I found that using this hookup works . Hook up your satellite connection to you tv as usual...Now plug rca cables(red, yellow white) into the corresponding holes on the BACK of the Directv receiver ..now plug the rca cables into the FRONT of the Magnavox player...you will only use find holes for the white and yellow(that's ok) Now hook up up the dvd player to the tv using the rca connection back of dvd/vcr player..or if your tv only has a coax connection you will need a rf modulator available at walmart etc. You will run the dvd/vcr on L2. The key is the connections to the FRONT of the dvd/vcr player..I hope this helps..:)

your model is "tuner free" that means it does not have the RF screw in connector. Buy one that has a tuner, preferably both ATSC(USA digital) and NTSC(USA analog)
