I have DMEZ 47V DVD recorder/VCR combo and panasonic digital/ HD tv...when I set up to pre record the equipment seems to accept the information ok but when i try to playback all i get is ..."cannot decode HD signal"......why and how do i fix it?

most are synced with the TV so when one is off the other turns off cause it is not sending an output signal.

Yes,if the channels itself don't block u.95%,yes it is recordable and 5% might blocks u.A signal will flashes on ur tv screen said not recordable.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Unfortunately, size limitation of what could be attached prevents posting a connection diagram. Still, proposed connection scheme:

• 4250HDC's HDMI to Panasonic's HDMI 1 or 2;
• 4250HDC's VIDEO OUT to GoVideo's LINE IN 1 VIDEO;
• 4250HDC's AUDIO OUT to 2 pcs of RCA Splitters (shown below);
• 1 pair from the 2 splitters to GoVideo's LINE IN 1 R-AUDIO-L;
• the other pair to Yamaha's LD/TV L & R;
• GoVideo's LINE OUT VIDEO to Panasonic's VIDEO IN 1 VIDEO;
• GoVideo's LINE OUT R-AUDIO-L to 2 more RCA Splitters;
• 1 pair from the 2 splitters to Panasonic's VIDEO IN 1 L-AUDIO-R;
• the other pair to Yamaha's VCR 1 IN L & R;
• to watch cable TV in HD quality, set Panasonic to HDMI 1 or 2 by pressing Panasonic remote's INPUT button, then 3 (or 4), then OK;
• to hear cable TV programs on Yamaha's speakers, set Yamaha to LD/TV;
• to watch DVD or VHS, set Panasonic to Video 1 by pressing Panasonic remote's INPUT button, then 6, then OK;
• to hear DVD or VHS on Yamaha's speakers, set Yamaha to VCR 1;
• to record cable TV programs, press GoVideo remote's TV VIEW button a couple of times to cycle through the signal sources or until Line 1 is displayed.

The use of the splitter shown below would effectively double the AUDIO OUT of the cable box and the DVD/VCR combo to feed both the TV and the stereo. Additionally, this would allow use of the cable box and/or the DVD/VCR combo with or without the Yamaha.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

Dry joint - faulty capacitor on the PC board of the decoder. Found by wiggling the components and resoldering

have capaciters in power supply checked if there are bulged capaciters they must be replaced

Take a red, white, and yellow AV cable and plug it from the AV out of the cable box to the red, white, and yellow In of the dvd recorder (change cable box to the channel you want to record). Then change your TV to the channel you want to view.

Have fun!

your model is "tuner free" that means it does not have the RF screw in connector. Buy one that has a tuner, preferably both ATSC(USA digital) and NTSC(USA analog)

Connect the AV output of the Sky box to the AV input of the Panasonic combo.Look at rear of the Combo and you will observe input and output RCA connections.Using RCA leads, hookup the Av output of the Panasonic to the audio/video input of the Sony tv. Power up Appliances, and you should be OK.

This machine does not support DVD recording. Are you trying to make a tape from a DVD, by some chance?...accordianman

Doesn't record properly, ie: looks like one channel is down when recorded, pre-recorded tapes are ok
Check Q008 for dry joints
