I had it set up yesterday, but today the blue screen won't come on the TV. I connected cable to Out Video on VCR and to Ant. on TV yesterday. The manual says use cable with video, R audio, and L audio which I borrowed from DVD and connected up to Out Video, R Audio and L Audio on VCR to In Video, R Audio, and L Audio on TV. Nothing happened when I set both to channel 3. I watched VCR tapes yesterday; today nothing. How could it work yesterday and not today?

I tried using both cables; neither one worked.

I don't have cable. The coax is from VCR (out to TV) and to TV to Ant In. I put both on Channel 3, but maybe it is something else if there is no cable and if I found it by accident yesterday, it played but Channel 3 doesn't give the blue screen.

Check the friendly interactive guide at

If connect the VCR with the TV via coax cable (RF to ANT), then the TV needs to be in Channel 3 or 4.
If you connect the VCR to the TV via the yellow video cable, then the TV needs to be in "Video In" or something similar.
(Don't forget to connect audio cables as well)
You only need ONE of the two types of connections.
