You can connect through the video output of the VCR (Yellow/White/Red) into the TV input (Yellow/White/Red or some newer TVs have component input so you would use Green), or you can use the coaxial input and tune to channel 4 on the TV (make sure the VCR is switch to output 4).

The easiest thing to do would be get a new TV plain and simple sounds as if you could use one n e ways. But first make sure you are hooked up through coaxal to the tv that will allow everything to run on channel 3. Let me know your current hookup.
SOURCE: DV 2150 Remote Control Codes
If it's not a well known brand, you're likely not going to find a code
for it. I've heard of Go Video, but I don't think it's a very popular
brand. (I could be wrong on this point)
Codes don't exist for every tv/dvd/vcr/surround system.
If the remote you bought doesn't have your dvd player listed, then you're probably out of luck.
If it's a very expensive universal remote (like $50-$100) then you
might find either a code or a firmware update for it on the
manufacturers website.
If not, try every code the instructions list. If you're lucky, one of them will work. If not, c'est la vie.
SOURCE: Hooking up my DVD/VHS player to TV & Convertor box
I would just hook up the dvd/vhs player with the red,white,yellow rca cables that should of come with your unit and just go to the input on the tv to watch your dvd/vhs player. This will give you a better picture and sound while allowing you not to have to watch dvd/vhs on a channel which helps make the dvd/vhs player independent. Also if possible I would hook the converter box up with the red,white, yellow rca cables to the tv as well if your tv has more than one set of red,white,yellow plugs since it is a better connection that coax and you probably watch more tv than vhs/dvd anyway. So bottom line try to hook up both boxes red,white,yellow and watch each box on different inputs instead of like channel 3 or 4. Also to record of converter box you can run coax from converter box to dvd/vhs combo and make sure your dvd/vhs player is on tuner input or channel 3.

Thank you ryolkowski!!!! We just tried your solution and MAN it worked like a damn. We were all ready to make a trip to the city to get a new tv, an expense we just didn't need right now. You made our day. I can't thank you enough. jabo
SOURCE: the VHS tapes will not playback on the Samsung TV
On these combo units, the VCR will not play using component cables but the dvd's will play just fine.
What you need to do is run a pair of composite (Yellow, red and white) cables and use that for VCR and component (Green, blue, red, white and red) for the dvd player.
Make sure you switch the tv to the corresponding input.
