Oh, I thought you were saying you got a perfect picture when you
output from one VCR to a second VCR, and at the same time output from
the second VCR to the DVD recorder, in effect simply using the second
VCR as a pass-through device. That's what I thought you meant when you
said "through another VCR". So what did you mean then?
Do you have other connection options, such as S-Video?
