Okay so... I'm trying to watch a movie. I insert the tape into the VCR, make sure power is ON.. and press PLAY. According to the VCR.. the tape is playing. HOWEVER, I don't see the movie on ANY channel. Not Ch. 1, not Ch. 2, not Ch. 3, not Ch. Video, not Ch. "FRNT", and there isn't a Ch. 4. AHH!! WHY!? What is wrong? Any ideas? When the VCR is powered ON.. ALLLLLL of the channels have a black screen and say "Unusable Signal". Then once I turn the VCR OFF.. that message and goes away and it is back to normal. I don't have Satellite, so I don't understand the "Unusuable Signal" part. Can anyone help me, or at least point me in the right direction?

Don't worry yet about where cords go, just make sure your cords are tight, and you don't see any diconected cords hanging loose.

VCR set ups can vary, so I'll give you some basics. Other than the power cord, there need to be at least two other cords, audio and video. If those are both plugged into the VCR, connecting it the TV, then I'm not sure what.

I hope that helped at least a little.
