No sound sent to VCR via RSP-1068

[hired goon]

G'day,

I'm trying to record the output of my set-top box to my VCR, but I'm not getting any sound. I get the video, but not the audio.

The audio output of the set-top box is connected to the RSP-1068 using an optical cable. The VCR gets audio via analog output from the RSP-1068.

When I set the recording source to CD, this gets recorded on the VCR. But when I set the recording source to the STB, no sound is recorded.

Is it impossible to record (via analog output) a digital input? Is there any way around this, so that I can record the video and audio output of my STB?

Does your'e STB have analog lines out? The 1068 has audio "in" jacks for most if not all of its video sources. It does not convert digital in to analog out other than maybe the tape loop, but that is fixed gain (volume).
