I have an NTL Pace DI4001NC set top box linked to a Sony RDR-HXD710 DVD Recorder via a Scart lead into Line one, out of the DVD on line 3 into a Sony KV-28FX65U TV via scart input 2 (to use the S-video connect on the scart). I also have a splitter on the NTL line before the Pace box going into the DVD CO-AX in and then out to the TV to pick up the normal channels so I can record these while watching other cable channels. This system worked fine on my Philips DVDR-70 but since buying the Sony and trying to set it up, I cannot get any channels to come up on the DVD set up and it also tells me the signal strength is zero. Any ideas what I have done wrong. The Sony has a multitude of ways to set the scart leads in and out of the DVD and I have tried most of the set ups. I had hoped to set them all to S-Video. The cable channel works fine and DVD's play fine using and of the set ups I have tried.
