Suggested hook up below. This is based on other posts where you said
your receiver has component vid switching.
Raw cable: split raw cable with a 75 ohm 2-way splitter with one leg
to the VCR antenna in and the other to the HD box. Note: if the HD
box has a bypass cable out, you can connect that to the VCR rather
than use the splitter.
HD box: Component vid out to receiver input. Digital audio out to
receiver input. Composite vid and L/R analog audio outs to VCR A/V
inputs.
VCR: Composite vid and L/R analog audio outs to receiver A/V input,
like VCR1 or Video1. RF out to TV antenna in.
DVD Player: Component vid out to receiver input. Digital audio out to
receiver input.
Receiver: Component monitor vid out to TV. Composite monitor vid out
to TV.
This setup will allow you to record from the box with the VCR aux
input (al least any channels that are downconverted to the composite
out) as well as record analog nonscrambled cable stations with the VCR
tuner. You'll be able to watch nonscrambled analog cable stations
with the TV tuner while recording from the box or recording from the
VCR tuner. You could also watch any stations output from the box
while recording with the VCR tuner.
