You need a convergence kit available at tvrepairkits.com

Chinese piece of ****.

Forgot?
Output of VCR/DVD to input of TV.

I have purchased a new VCR/CD player. I tried everything, but nothing worked. I did purchase another Magnavox, but if this machine does not perform any longer than the first one, I will not purchase another one. The reason I purchased a Magnavox this time was that there were no other products available in my town.

tengo un televisor magnavox combo pero so;o quiero sabersi se puedde dejar solo funcionando como tv ...y eliminar dvd . ya que no puedo hacerlo.
alguna ayuda se la agradeceria

Most common reason is shorted convergence chips. Goto the site www.TvRepairKits.com and get their "chirping set" repair kit. 

Check the video signal if it is PALSICAM or NTSC

any magnavox controler will work just put in some good batteries . lots retail wholesale stores like walmart carries magnavox tv remotes but make sure its a magnavox.

The capacitor blew. You need to get that replaced. That little capacitor stores that electrice charge to power your unit on and timer programmings etc. Either get that fixed by yourself or call support line.
