Does anyone still use a VCR? My neighbor is torturing me?

Unfortunantly the way the digital converter works he would need to have a whole new signal coming in on a whole new box for this to work. You would need to buy a switch box that would let your tv change coax cables coming in from diffrent sources. One straight from a converter box and the other from you vcr that would be hook up to a converter box.

Like Josef said the only other way would be to watch non Digital channels while you record digital channels . What is on the digital converter box is what he will see unless there is another digital signal. Its a linear set up so no matter how many devices or hook ups he used the only digital signal showing would be that of the box.

He could play hes DVD and record his VCR. He could record (x)Digital channel and play a VCR but he will not be able to watch one digital channel and record another. Diagram of way to hook up two digital box's.

Ok so its impossible to do what your neighbor wants without more equipment, the dtv converter box is acting like a cable box/antenna in this case so you need to hook it to the vcr then hook the vcr to the television. Then set the vcr on channel 3 or 4 and the tv on tv video and the dtv converter box to whatever channel you would like to record, and record it. Essentially the only other thing you could do is have it so that he could watch non-dtv channels on the television while recording from the dtv box, or he could hook up 2 dtv boxes...

Im not sure but, I don't think you'd be able to record one station and watch another with that setup. I know on my old TV at home it was possible as we had the cable running into the TV and into the VCR and both were acting as seperate tuners. Then once Digital TV rolled around this wasn't possible (at least it wasn't possible to watch/record different digital tv channels).

In other words if you only have one tuner setup then thats the only thing you can watch/record.

Sadly, common DTV converters don't allow that to happen. I didn't even think you could do that with analog tv either.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
