I have given a new freeview digital tv to the elderly lady next door, she still has a vcr that she wants to keep as she records from it. At the moment she has an old large backed tv, a freeview box and the vcr/dvd combo. I have brought a converter box to convert scart to hdmi. She has 2 scarts in the back of the vcr, 1 of which I am going to use the scart/hdmi converter for to connect to the tv. Is there a way I can set this up so she can still record from the vcr ?. Thanks

Thanks for replies. She has a freeview box connected to her very old vcr/dvd combo. So from what I remember the ariel goes to her freeview box along with a scart lead to her vhs then there is another scart lead from vhs to crt tv plus an ariel cable vhs to crt tv. So I was hoping that the new scart/hdmi converter I brought will just replace the scart lead from vhs to new tvs hdmi socket. Should it work ?.
I will try and get model numbers when she is home. Thanks

jb38: Thanks that after having a think about it today that is what I will do. She is a lady of 93 and I offered her our year old tv as hers was really old , as she knows how to record things via vhs she wanted to keep it. Thanks for everyones help the hdmi converter cost me 18 so a cheap price to pay to put a smile on her face.
