You can't get the DVD player to work right all of the time with it plugged into the VCR. They've set it up so that many of the movies won't display properly. Best to either have a tv with all of the correct plugs to begin with, or to get an RF modulator. I tried a search of the forum for my last post on the subject, but can't find it. Get one that allows you to plug in several devices, then plug that into the tv coaxial connection. Radio Shack has one for about $30.
