How do you watch your old VHS tapes on your new LCD TV?

Answer 1

First, you need a VHS player. If you have a collection of tapes, the player is probably available to you. You will need to take a video and audio signal from the VHS player. In Europe, it will probably be a Scart connector, a 21 pin rectangular connector that carries video and audio. In North America, it is normally an RCA connector for video and two RCAs for audio. The leads will connect to the television on one of the input channels. It will probably have a yellow, a red and a white RCA socket (Phono socket). Make a note of the input number or name and select that input using the remote control.

You should now have the VHS player showing on the screen. Remember that it will still be VHS quality even if the television is HD so don't expect a miraculous improvement in quality.
