To program your Magnavox DVD VCR combo using the Magnavox CLO358 universal remote, you can try the following codes:
0503 0675 1153 1203 1321 Here's how you can program the remote:
Turn on your Magnavox DVD VCR combo manually. Press and hold the "Code Search" button on the remote until the indicator light turns on. Release the "Code Search" button. Press and release the mode button for the device you want to program (in this case, the DVD VCR combo). The indicator light should remain on. Enter one of the codes listed above using the numeric keypad on the remote. The indicator light should turn off after entering the code. Aim the remote at the DVD VCR combo and press the "Power" button. If the device turns off, the code is correct. If not, repeat steps 4 to 6 with the next code on the list. If none of the codes work, or if you have any other issues, it's recommended to consult the user manual of your Magnavox CLO358 universal remote for additional instructions and a complete list of codes.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.
This is normal for the ZV457MG9 units. The Magnavox ZV457MG9 does not have an analog (NTSC) tuner; additionally there is no digital (ATSC or QAM) tuner either. It will only record on line in (L1) which is a composite input (limited to SD). The HDMI port on the recorder is an HDMI out to TV, not an input. The component video jacks are also only outputs.
Cindy Wells (If your DVD/VCR recorder had a tuner, it would record off a coaxial (antenna) cable input. Many DVRs can record off the HD connection (HDMI or component); that may be a better option for replacing this Magnavox unit.)
