    Hi
    Unless your box is the pvr version with two tuners and a hard drive inside it you can only record the channel you are watching or watch the channel you are recording. You will be able to get all of the channels on another tv using scart out(but will need a long scart lead) or RF out (coax cable/TV Cable).You shouldn't need a printout and pictures to follow my above explanation of that.

    It will say so on the front of the box (Starview PVR or TheBox)
    Have you opened your manual/User Guide yet? look in your manual on page 9 (rear panel picture) Then look on page 10 and 11(Connection Diagram Pictures) and plug your extension coax lead into number 2 (tv out)and the other end into your VCR or TV input and try it. Read pages 9,10 and 11 till you get it.

    if you have the box, you can only record what ya watch, if you switch the channel, then what your recording will switch, use the search facilty on the site, there is a number of posts about using a video to send your signal to another telly and wireless video senders
