DVR/DVD problems

I rented a DVR and paid the cable guy to install it and it's great but now the combo. VCR/DVD player doesn't work. I called the cable co. and was told it might have been the input which is no longer cable but HDMi. This is all bewildering to me and I just left it as I get very frustrated and don't want to mess it up again as I did last week - and spent most of the afternoon trying to get the picture back. The picture is back and it records, etc. now that the input is on HDMi but the DVD menu doesn't come up though it turns off and on. Any ideas? Has anyone else had this problem?

Black cable HDMi going into TV; Black cable digital audio out going into TV. Two shades of beige cable going who knows where since I can't get the back off the stand - either to the DVR or DVD/VCR or both - or one of each. I can't pull the DVD out as the DVR is sitting on top of it. Maybe the DVD isn't even connected for all I can see.

I suggest you call the nearest high school and ask if they can recommend a student who knows how to hook up TV equipment. I bet you get a good one.

Good idea! I was going to suggest that she would grab a young guy that happened to walk by, by the ear and drag him in and say to him "get busy buster"!
Of course, have an apple pie, baking in the oven. The smell of a baking apple pie will take all the fight of any young fellow!

I was going to get more salacious by recommending a kid who was into older women and you could probably get your house painted.
