Re: Problem recording from STB
As already said,

1. make sure you are recording from the SCART.
If your VCR is set to channel 1 (BBC1 on the coax cable), then pressing channel down usually takes you to AV3, 2, 1 try recording a few seconds on each of these. Hopefully you should find a picture.

2. If the VCR has a scart connection to the TV, this may be the TV picture, so if you have found one you get a picutre on, then record it, while recordign switch the tv off for a few seconds and back on again. If you had a picture through that then you have the right channel.

3. Stick a note to the top of the VCR, the VCR remote etc to remind you to set it to AV1 (or whatever iti s called) when you want to record. Mine is pretty much permanently on that channel now.
