Same thing as a TV tuner, except that you're using it to tune your VCR into a specific channel instead of the TV.
It means that you have a VCR. VCRs do not have tuners.
Because the manufacturers are idiots!
An analog TV tuner is a hardware device which enables analog TV signals (from an antenna or VCR or some other device) to be recorded, processed or viewed on a computer system.
I personally like grover tuners betre
There are several ways to hook a vcr up to a PC monitor, but most of them depend on the outputs of the vcr and inputs and other features of the monitor. The easiest and usually cheapest way is to buy a tv tuner for your PC. These tuners cost from $20-$200. Another way is to use a vga box which will de-interlace the vcr input and upscale the rez for the monitor. If your vcr has rca component out and the moniter supports sync on green then you could use a straight through component to vga adapter. Also some older monitors as well as fairly expensive new ones may have some type of rca or s-video input.
Cable hookupyou can string them in order wall to cable box ( if needed ) box to vcr ( for recording ) vcr to DVD and DVD to tv. Mine is hooked up wall to box, box to splitter, splitter to tv ( I have dual tuners for pip ) then coaxial out plugs on DVD to coaxial in on tv ( I don't use a vcr any more but if I did it would be after the splitter and before the tv.) There is no need to send cable to the DVD unless it is a recorder also or if you don't have auxiliary inputs on the tv.
Go out from the dish set-top box and into the vcr and then out from vcr into the tv. Most receivers have outputs that are RCA (Yellow/Red/White). On the back of your VCR, you should have inputs for RCA. Also have inputs on the back of the Television. There are two ways to go if it is a non-HD receiver: Coaxial and RCA ---- Take the cable output from the back of the receiver (it says "out to tv") and connect that to the input on the VCR. Then take another cable and attach it to the output on the VCR and connect that to the TV's input. This requires you to set the TV to either channel 3 or 4 depending on the setup on the VCR. ---- Take the RCA (Yellow/Red/White) from the receiver to the VCR inputs and plug them in. Hookup the VCR to the TV using the Coax or using the RCA output on the VCR. Note: this will require you to set the VCR to the TV/VCR setting in order to view the Video/Audio output. This would require either changing the channel (Coax output) or changing the TV's video input.
Generally VCR's are digital electronic items. Some manufacturers add digital tuners(digital tuning radios) to their products as a extra option. VCRs work fine without digital tuner and its handy for you with a digital tuner than an analog.

A VCR stand is not necessary to make a VCR working properly as it is only a piece of furniture used to hold the VCR. A VCR will work as long as it is plugged into the wall and hooked up to a TV.
The abbreviation of VCR is...
Yes, as long as your VCR has an composite input. Simply plug the composite cables from your PS3 into your VCR. If you plan on playing your PS3 through your VCR this way your VCR must be turned on for it to work.
