Thanks for the reply. I think I've got it figured out after messing with it
for a long time. I was trying to complicate things when really all I had to
do was go in to the VCR from the wall and then out to the TV tuner. I was
just using the hookup that came with the video card and not actually
attaching my cable from the wall to the VCR. Now I can just open the ATI
multimedia center, put it on channel 3, program the VCR and then close the
multimedia center. Basically just like I would with a TV/VCR connection.
Sorry I didn't think this through before I posted.
Thanks,
Barb
