I have a 20+ yeard old rca colortrak 2000 tv that I have hooked up to receive digital broadcasts. last night i added a panasonic dvd burner/vcr (digital). to begin the setup I am supposed to select AV on the TV to enable me to get into the VCR setup. i don't have the original remote nor have i found anything that leads me to believe that AV is an option supported by this TV. is there a way around this or must i either buy a new TV, take the VCR set back, or what?

Borrow a set with A/V input, or get an RF modulator.

Go to ch 2.
Now go down a channel, it may be your video ch.

Does the TV have RCA inputs in addition to the cable input?

TV seems to have only antenna B and a decoder inputs besides cable.

Some RCAs have video ch on 99 and 98.
Like I mentioned go to ch 2, then go down.
