How do I hook up my toshiba dvd/vcr D-KVR20ku with samsung plasma tv and comcast hd box? Here is the backpanel of the comcast hd box except it is not a dvr http://broadband.motorola.com/consum...t6208_back.jpg. I have a toshiba Toshiba D-KVR20ku dvd/vcr recorder and a samsung plasma pn42a450p1d. I have hd picture, can view dvds and vhs tapes. I can record picture but get no sound.
1st, see if you can get another cable box that offers component as well as RCA outputs on the back. Does your cable box have S Video out and does your toshiba have S Video in? If so, hook up the S Video from cable box to Toshiba. Then hook up R&W audio from Cable Box out to Toshiba In. Set the channel on the cable box to what you want to record. Set Toshiba to record channel 3 or 4, whichever your Toshiba is set on. The cable box controls the channel you are recording. You cannot set the recorder to the channel you want to record. It must be either 3 or 4. Try it. If everything else fails, you have to go cable from wall to cable in on cable box, cable out on cable box to cable in on Toshiba then either cable or RCA out on Toshiba to TV.

I went from bottom red and white out of hd cable box to vcr/dvd in. From vcr/dvd out to the componet 1 of the tv. I the went from dvd red and white out to the composite on the tv. I can record with sound on the DVD side. I may need to switch the red and whites to get the vcr to record with sound.
I didn't get the owners manual and can't understand how to record from the tv. I have a Sony HDTV, a Time/Warner(Comacast) HD DVR cable box, and the Toshiba 610. I'm thinking I connect the output of my cable box to the input of the Toshiba (VCR/DVD input), then the Toshiba output (VCR/DVD output) to the TV input. My problem is the cable box only has the component video outputs (Y,R, B, 2 audio) and the Toshiba only has the video cable inputs (video, R/W audios). Where am I going wrong?
