Hi I have a DVD Recorder with HD, and I want to record some stuff from my VCR. However when I went to try it, it comes up with a message that my TV is not compatible with this DVD Recorder.



What should I do, is there some settings on my TV I should change ? My TV is pretty new, only about 2 years old. Any adice much appreciated.



Thanks.J

What Make/Model? And how is all this stuff connected? What leads are you using connected to what?

Be a little more specific ;-)

Strange that the TV tells you its not compatible?

Do you get this message when you are trying to record or just playing a DVD? What make/ model gear have you got? Are you using AV leads to connect the TV to the DVD recorder? Allan

Hmmmm, smells like copy protection to me. Are the tapes commercial ones ? If so, do you have the same problems with tapes you record yourself ?

If this is the problem, you may be able to accomplish the recording with the aid of a "video enhancer" connected between the VCR & the DVD recorder.
