Well get started and see how it works. You should have been done by now.

This is not that difficult. Think of it this way. Your Direct TV box is a sender and the other three devices are receivers. With ONE of the DVD recorders being both sender and receiver. So cables go OUT from a sender and IN to a receiver. Cables are color coded so you have to match the color coding from the out to the In. For the Direct TV output to show on your TV it is passed from the Direct TV box, through one of the Recorders. That device needs to be powered on for the TV to receive the signal.

I am at work right now


Should I use the Video 1 or Video 2 On my Flat screen TV

Up to you. You have 2 options so you can connect multiple inputs.
