Can I see television programs on a television that doesn't have a digital tuner, if I connect it to a Vcr Dvd combo that has a Digital Tuner in it? And, would I be able to watch another channel while recording a program from the TV?

:confused:

Not unless it has a dual tuner you can't watch one program and record another. The digital stuff is different from the analog.

Are you on cable or using an antenna?

You might want to get a digital converter anyway as you would have to have the VCR/DVD on in order to watch ANY television. They are not that expensive. If you get cable your cable TV provider probably will give you one for free to watch cable TV.

I have an HDTV, but my Dvd/Vcr combo does not have a digital tuner in it, therefore I am not able to record the channels through it. I tried to connect a converter box, but it still didn't work. What can I do?:confused:::(

Will it be possible to record from a television, connected to a dvd/vcr combo (both without digital tuners) and connected to a converter box; and how do I connect? :confused:
