1178304 2011-02-14 22:13:00 I've just got myself a terrestrial receiver, and I can't work out what wire connects where so that the receiver, TV, and DVD all work as intended. Can someone help me with a wiring diagram please? I've drawn a schematic of the sockets, and I can email this to you (Image F1 seems to be down). Thanks :o WalOne (4202)

1178306 2011-02-14 22:27:00 Your receiver manual should explain that CliveM (6007)

Speedy I've screened it and saved as a PDF file, but PF1 says it's an invalid file. Can you suggest an alternative?


Your receiver manual should explain that

It probably does, but there's 3 different manuals, 3 different versions of English. I'm not normally too challenged but in this case when you're not sure of the animal you're dealing with .... If this was a 744, no problem, but then I know what that's all about.

1178310 2011-02-14 23:07:00 Just connect it to the AV in inputs on the TV. And to the r/l audio inputs on the TV. Then you'll have to change the channel (or to the AV channels) on the TV to see freeview

Or plug Y, PB, Pr to the same on the TV

1178311 2011-02-14 23:45:00 Yeah it looks like you have two sets of AV inputs on the back of the TV.

Connect the DVD player to one of them and the DVB-T receiver to the other.

1178312 2011-02-15 00:11:00 If it was a HDD DVD recorder instead of a DVD player, would you be able to record Freeview channels, using the set top box as a tuner? John H (8)
1178313 2011-02-15 00:12:00 Yeah if it could record from AV input. But you'd have to manually set everything up to record at the right time. Agent_24 (57)
