    Hi there...Its my first time to post a thread so hope i'm following the rules!!
    I've got a Pioneer RCS-404H all-in-one (multi-channel receiver subwoofer, speaker system and DVD Recorder) and after hours of trying i just can't seem to link it properly to my Chorus digital terrestrial set top box (sagem box) and TV. I've connected all the units up as per the manuals but still can't get the chorus channels to work through the DVD recorder. There are 2 scart sockets on the TV, STB and also the recorder all of which i've used as per the manuals.
    Any advice would be appreciated

    Tell us what you have connected to what, starting with the cable box. sorting this out shouldn't be a problem. Try Scart from cable box to scart-in on dvd recorder, TV-out scart on dvd recorder to Scart on TV, in a daisy chain.

    Thanks Ritz i actually got it working eventually. Originally i had the 'VCR' scart socket at the back of the chorus box connected to the DVD Recorder and then i had the DVD recorder connected via a scart lead to the TV. There is a 'TV' scart outlet on the back of the chorus box which i had connected to the other scart outlet on the tv directly. It wasn't working with this set-up so i connected the 'tv' scart outlet on the chorus box to the DVD recorder and connected the DVD recorder to the tv as above...alas this worked and i can now record tv programs too.

    Do you know if i can use guide+ as the dvd recorder has that facility. i read it somewhere on the boards that you can???
