If your TV has a built in ATSC tuner then that's where you're going to
find your HD channels. My set didn't come with a built in tuner which
is why I use the DVR. Prior to the DVR I had an ATSC tuner/
upconverting DVD player combo unit. What make an model TV do you have?

I can virtually guarantee that the VCR doesn't have an ATSC tuner in
it so it is not going to detect or tune HD channels.
