Bbox VCR Connection

Hello,
I just changed my Internet Service Provider and I have the Bbox sensation. When I had the Orange LiveBox, I could record shows on my VCR. I would like to do the same with this new box, but I'm failing to make the correct connections between the box, the Toshiba recorder, and the Samsung screen. I connected the output from my box to the blue input (decoder) of the recorder; then I connected the second output of the recorder to the screen which has two Ext inputs (AV or RGB). I have tried different options for the screen (AV, Ext1 or Ext2) as well as for the recorder (A1, A2, SA or ST), but my screen is not receiving any signal. What mistake did I make?
Thank you for your help.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 23.0.1271.95

    Hello
    Three times alas the new boxes are almost forbidden from allowing any signal to be extracted to a recorder or external hard drive, and this applies to all ISPs, including Free, Orange, SFR, etc., and CANAL, whose programs are protected by copyright. The ISPs have responded by introducing an option for an internal hard drive that is only accessible through recording playback from the box. The article published on Wikipedia under the name HDCP protocol will tell you more. Thanks to the CSA and Hadopi
    bye

      I understood that it is not possible to record what comes from the hard drive. But why does the Bbox have a SCART output that, according to the documentation, is used to "connect the TV or a recorder?"

      Hello, the peritel here, like elsewhere (for example, Free) offered an analog signal allowing you to connect a CRT TV; if it works, it's worth trying ?? You could connect an analog recorder to the peritel, but sometimes, still at Free, it's either the HDMI or the peritel that doesn't work, not both together (trap!)
