HELP!
I have an analogue TV which, until yesterday, was connected to the cable without a cable box. My old set-up had the cable connecting to one of those five-plug metal things (I don't know what they're called.) I connected a VCR and VCR/DVD to the metal thing and then connected both recorders to an A/B switch, which itself was then connected to the TV.
Yesterday Brookhaven Cable, an Optimum company, forced and everyone else to get a cable box. I couldn't get it to work, so a technician came over abd hooked it directly to the A/B switch, disconnecting the two recorders in the process. He told me that I couldn't use the set-up I was using before the box was installed. I don't understand why, byut I do know that now I can't record anything!
Can anyone give me advice? How do I connect the cable to thw recorders?
