    Hi there,what you need to do is connect the coax output(usually marked TV)to the aerial input of your second tv and you will have to then tune your tv to the correct output channel of the vcr/dvd.This will be an anolgue signal so make sure you are not set to digital your tv.The channel might be around the 36 mark or some are around 68 channel.This does persume that the vcr/dvd does have rf out because some units only have scart as an output and the rf is a loop through only.Hope this makes sence...

    The scart settings you have beem looking at wont effect the RF output these will be for the scart output only.If you will be using aerial cable to the RF output socket you can forget about the scart output.What you are better doing is disconnecting the scart cable an just connect the vcr/dvd via the RF cable,then start to play a video or dvd and put the tv into a tv auto tune scan.The TV should then do a scan and find the tv stations and hopefully find the tape/dvd that is being played ,you can then store the settings.Like I mentioned before some modern players dont have an RF output and they have to be watched by scart only.What model of player are you using?

    dvd players and recorders do not have an rf tuner and so do not have an rf output , especially if it were an HD player

    even a standard def recorder no longer has this 21 to 69 rf tuner , and so you wont find any rf channel to tune in , same goes for 90% of freeview boxes too

    so you are probably looking for something that is no longer there as its no longer in new recorders

    if you do want to do this task , you need a scart to rf adapter from m@plin or fleabay , connect leads from the player or recorder into it and send the coax signal out to the other room , usually they are on ch36 but can normally be altered to anything between 21 and 69

    if you check your manual you will probably find no mention of this rf channel , because it isnt there

    the aerial in and out is aerial in for tv tuning into the recorder , and the coax aerial out is a loopthrough to give the tv set the channels into its inbuilt tuner

    Hi Munir,just been lookin on Philips web site and like I thought your machine does not have an RF freq output and it is a loop through only.The only way you will be able to use it with coax cable like you want is to use a convertor.

    For better picture (and sound) you should think about trying DVI, HDMI, VGA or SCART.
