Does my VCR need a digital recorder to record?

I hooked up an old VCR to my new flat screen tv but it won't record. It plays old tapes ok, and has 2 cables bringing signal into the tv. But it won't record. Do I need a digital signal 'decoder' box for the VCR to recognize the digital cable signal? It's just one cable from the wall to the new tv, but now I've wired the VCR in between them.I don't have a manual for the VCR. Thanks.
