LG RH266 setup with freeview tv

I can't find out how to get the LG RH266 DVD Recorder to pick up the channels from the built in Freeview on the TV the recorder is connected to. Does it even work with a TV with built in Freeview?

- You have come up with some good points that we didn't even think of. Oh well, serves us right for buying off ebay instead of from a store.

One thing though, why are manufacturers making TV's with built in Freeview when you cannot record from it, there are very few people around who don't want to be able to record at least the odd program.

Thank you for your reply Vortash, you have saved me many more hours trying to get the recorder to do something its not capable of.

Sorry to say no it wont not unless the Tv set manuel says it has a Duel Freeview feed , you have to get another freeview box for the recorder .
besides If you used the freview in the tv 1 , the tv would have to be on when you wanted to record ?. and 2 you couldnt watch another channel whilst recording another .. only 1 tuner ?. also you could only record the program you had on .at the time no timer facility .
People are still used to the Old system of VHs and the fact that all videos had tuners built in so you could watch and record .. It will come and indeed some more modern DVD recorder have freeview built in again sorry but thats the facts , and dont forget if you want the pay per view channels on free view your going to need a tuner with a pay card port ...
