ARGH! Trying to hook up old dvd/vcr combo to a tv with only component hookups.

AHA orithina! I tried that, I was dumbs and had it on component (OF COURSE it's going to hate that!) and now I got a working VCR!!! *dances* I'm actually waiting on a controller to the PS2, so not going to bother to full hook it up yet. I'll fix the TV so "Video" has a reminder that "That's the VCR, you dolt!" (BTW, I tested it with The Jungle Book, if anyone's curious)

Not going to bother stopping the RF switch (best to have a backup anyhoos), if that don't work once I get the controller for the PS2, I'll daisy chain that though the vcr. (It came with no cables so been getting those; the power cable and the RCA cable for the PS2 came together) I knew the VCR cable at least was good, since it'd worked on the old tv and I don't think cables go bad just hanging there, or plugged in incorrectly. Thanks.

Awesome, glad it wasn't anything serious. Just a case of RTFM.

Yeah, tho I don't doubt everyone has that kinda..mm..dolt/stupid moments now and then.

At least it's fixed now.
