Hello Cable TV Forum members,

I have been attempting to review a copy of one of Jonathan’s setups but have been unable to open up the pdf file, for some strange reason my firefox browser will not run the Adobe 9 application to view any of the pdf files stored in his site.

The hookup pdf in question is “ hookup24.pdf” would some kind individual mind in opening up this file and copy and paste it to a word document and email the information to me at fego@videotron.ca

It would be much appreciated.

PS. I had email Jonathan a personal email a week ago, guess he is too occupied to respond.

Hello Jonathan, I also am unable to access your pdf files even though i am using a current acrobat (5) reader, is there something going on with your links to the pdf files?
What i require assistance on is hooking up a toshiba RD-XS32SU dvd recorder to my existing system which consists of a samsung HD dlp tv using dvi cables to my pace HD cable box, i also have a toshiba 1080P Full hd dvd player connected to kenwood HTB-505 home theater system which does not have any HDMI or DVI inputs or outputs. Any assistance would be most Appreciated!

Hi Jonathan i have a dvd and hard drive recorder how do i connect it to my virgin cable box and my tosiba tv thank you

Jonathan----After all this signing up and registering to get the pdf 19 guide, it won't download. What's wrong? I'm not a tekkie, but I'm trying to hook up my dvd through my DTV converter. I've successfully hooked that to my tv, but I wanna watch some movies. Help!

Actually your VCR will record a digital signal on the standard digital boxes. These boxes are equipped with an RF output (ch.3 or 4), RCA jacks and/or S video outputs. If you are wanting to use your standard analog VCR to record broadcast digital feeds, the box is what you will need. Some VCR's now have a digital tuner built in so you can continue to record without a box. If your digital TV has a monitor output, you can run the RCA out to the RCA in of the VCR and record it after it has been converted through the TV.

Sir:
With all the hype about the digital-TV changeover, it dawned on me the other day that nothing has been said about the affect on current analog-tuner equipped VCRs. I am assuming that the current VCRs will not receive or translate a digital signal. Here's my situation: I have one analog TV, and two TVs that can receive both analog and digital; I plan to ask my cable company (Suddenlink) to keep the digital signal (I have obtained one Zenith dtv converter box). However, I am now wondering if the VCR I plan to use with one of my digital TVs will still work without the coverter; will it record the digital signal and the TV unscramble the signal or will the VCR need to be hooked to a converter box? This is really bugging me, and I need to know before my second government-issued coupon expires.
