My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

help ! dvd recorder intallation to direct tv satellite

19 years ago

I need help in installing my Toshiba DR4 DVD recorder to a Samsung high definition TV. Recently got Direct TV Satellite installed. What is the easiest way to hook it up ? The installer said to use the TV remote ( press source and then use the DVD remote to record or play) not the direct TV remore. Can anyone help ? another question does anyone have any preference on using RCA cables or HDMI cable to tie the DVD to the TV. I really need help, I am a novice when it comes to this high tech stuff.
