If you are wanting to do an instant recording of the viewed channel, it isnt possible if the V+ box is in HD (as the VCR scart is disabled)
The only way around this is to record the program to the hard drive and then use the copy to VCR/DVD function (in V+ extras menu)
As you have probably discovered, connecting the DVDr to the V+ box and selecting the appropriate input on the DVD results in a blank screen (you may or may not get audio only - mine does at this point)
It is only when you have selected the recording to be copied and pressed the yellow "copy now" button that the V+ box actually outputs anything through its VCR scart
Archiving has always been a bit of an **** on for me
. TV, V+ and DVDr remotes at the ready!!!
