I have a GoVideo Model DV2150. I'll turn to channel 3 to set-up a timed recording. Later, when the vcr turns on (at the appropriate time) it scrambles the station that I'm currently watching and when I turn to channel 3, it becomes the channel that I had set to record. I did get a response from a "Guru" who was kind enough to explain how to mess with the cables in the back of the machine, but I'm not that tech savvy and had hoped to find an easier solution. Also, when I set the clock, I have to do it on "manual" and the time tends to change a little (a few minutes fast, usually)....I can't use the "auto" clock setting because it'll randomly change the time, date and year

Wellt here is no easy way to fix the issue without messing with the cables on this one. When it changes the input to channel 3 it is drawing away all of the signal. You need to use a different input all together for whatever else you are wanting to do.
It sounds like the unit may actually be malfunctioning, if nothing in the setup has changed there is not a whole lot else that can explain what is happening. How old is this unit? It may still be under warranty..
Thanks, let me know

Well you can try locating the red yellow and white connectors on the back of the GoVideo box, and the the same connectors on the TV. You can connect those two together. Then you should be able to change to "input 1" or "video" mode on your TV to see the picture.
Try that out =)
Thanks
