I have a Toshiba sd-v295 dvd/vhs player. I bought it new and have had it for around 5 years now, I can't get any audio when I play a vhs, but when I play a dvd it has great audio. I played a vhs when it was new and had no audio even then, it plays the movie fine, great picture and play, but it has no audio. I can fast forward/reverse etc...but no audio. I must have it hooked up correctly or the dvd audio would not work,,,,right?? Somebody help me please,,;o) I just want to watch some old movies on vhs but the audio isn't there...
Answer
You probably don't have it hooked up correctly sometimes those units only have to have one connection for audio for both VCR and DVD but other times you have to hook up two separate connections one for DVD and another for VHS depending on how the unit was designed...you might also try pluging in the connections for the VHS and once you get that going with sound; the DVD may be able to play through those same connections for VHS but not the other way around....but just unplug everything and try and get the VCR to work fist and then the DVD player.....last

I have a sanyo dvd/vhs combo player and have it hooked up to....?
GD.
an old tv with the only hookup on it anywhere is where the attenna goes. I have an RF modulator hooked up to it and to the dvd/vhs combo player but it will only play vhs tapes. when i put a dvd in it reads it and then clickes the RF modulator back off and quits on the dvd side. how do i fix this? any help is greatly appreciated!
Answer
I don't know about all the VHS/DVD combo's, but VHS is basically 480i. There are DVD players with upconverter to play on HD sets, but the HD sets also have an upconverter, so I don't know the reason for the duplication. Sales gimmick, I think.
But perhaps the DVD is set to upconvert, while the VHS is not. The modulator can only take 480i, so if it's getting 1080i, it's way out of range and clicks off to protect itself.
