i got it all connected but the reception on dvd player is bad
the arial is connected to the settopbox and then a cable goes through to the dvd:confused:

[Autocon]

sorted all that but now the settop box isnt working just a blue screen and nothing has changed:confused: just be needing the signal strength stronger?

[mightyant]

are you wanting to record from STB to the DVD?

[Autocon]

got it all sorted and working, had a guy over to check it its all good. But why does it go to blue screen sometimes? is it the signal strength

[mightyant]

Either that or a fault in the connection somewhere. Hard to diagnose without seeing the gear or knowing who made the gear
