Connecting DVD, VCR & Foxtel to mono TV

Near Guyra then Barry?

No not that far up. I'm half way between Tamworth and Armidale out in the bush on 5 acres with the use of my brother-in-laws 1400 acres with more hardwood trees than you can poke a stick at.

We had the same problem with our old but perfectly good TV with but one set of AV inputs. A little box from Tricky Dickie for not many dollars allowed 4 outputs to be switched to the one TV input. The only problem was that the couch potato had to get up and physically change the switch. The label says Digitor AV Selector. Another gizmo takes the two stereo RCA plugs and parallels them into one, again very cheap.

Thanks to one and all.

Everything is connected and works - although the picture form the VCR is a bit dodgy but I think a head clean might fix that?

I got a simple RCA adaptor from DSE that lets me connect both L and R channels from the DVD to the single (mono) input on the TV. I bring the Foxtel signal in thorugh the VCR and then from the VCR to the TV via a second coax.

Cheers
