If you hook up the VCR between the output of the Dish DVR and the TV, you'll be able to do what you want. Jonathan

vcr hookup

I seem to have lots of yellow plugs hanging here and there, is that what I need to use. Also, my tv jacks are down by the floor, none of these plugs will reach that far, what do I need.
THANK YOU!!

Our satellite was originally installed on RCA TV on the DVD option. Now we are unable to plug any other component like DVDR and VCR into the receiver? what is the solution.

Thanks so much

(we've been tearing our hair out to fix this)

I'm afraid that given what you've said, you're going to need to hire a local satellite tech to come and look at your exact set up.
