Just purchased Toshiba DVR670 and hooked it up. Cannot get a setup menu to appear on the TV screen. All cords/connections appear to be working as the picture has improved and it runs beautifully through the stereo. Have read manual and cannot find a place that addresses this. This is so basic and I've NEVER had problem with this before. Joyce Lamoine, Maine

Usually, depending on the source, or channel, timer recording can be performed on a VCR; even this model.

The short answer is YES - you can record cable times or set manual scheduled recordings on this VCR. It depends on the channel(s) available in your area, and/or the source (such as cable receivers/set top boxes, etc.) which are intended to be recorded.

Are you sure that the TV has external speakers? Go to the on screen sound setup menu to make sure the speakers are not set to OFF.

New HD tv. Have digital cable box connected to tv., cable box connected to DVD recorder, but can't get setup menu to come up on tv screen. I had a similar problem. I have a HD tv connected to a digital cable box. I hooked up the DVD recorder with the wires it came with, but it would not play or give me the menu. However it was correctly hooked up. So the next day I connected a HDMI wire from the DVD recorder to the tv and everything works now.

Found this on the www.toshiba.com website. Q. I have sound and no picture with the TV powered on?

Check the setup menu on your TV. Many models require that you choose between using the internal speakers and using the speaker outputs. Sometimes the TV menu choices are "FIXED" (audio output) or "VARIABLE" (internal speakers).

Your cables are coded red(right audio), white(left audio) and yellow(video). The cable inputs on the dvd player and tv are likewise coded. Just connect color to like color. In setup, do not
change NTSC! If you should go to PAL you'll never get out of setup and all you'll have is screen roll, as though the vertical hold gave out.
