As others have said, some VCRs can be used to take the SCART input
in and then play onto the TV via RF (as mine does (Hitachi))

You have to choose the DVD player wisely. Not all can have the copy
protection disabled. The copy protection will prevent you watching if there
is a video recorder in the loop, even if it isn't recording.

Not with my Hitachi it doesn't. The macrovision (Copy protection) is
still there, and you can't record, but playback is fine.
