How do you hook up a DVD player to an older tv?

Answer 1

Easiest/fastest way. Run the sattelite coaxial cable to the "sattelite in" jack on the back of the sattelite receiver, run a coaxial cable from the "out to TV" jack of the sattelite receiver to the "antenna in" jack on the VCR and a coaxial cable from the "out to TV" jack of the VCR to the "antenna in" coaxial of the TV. Then, run audio/video cables (red, white and yellow) from the "video out" (yellow) of the DVD player to the "video in" of the TV and the red and white cables out of the DVD to the red and white jacks of the TV. Audio out (left and right) of the DVD to audio in of the TV. If the TV has 4 in/out jacks to accept component (red, white yellow) cables, run the component cables from the out side of the sattelite box, VCR, DVD and video game seperately to the TV inputs, 1,2,3 and 4. You would then simply use the TV remote to change inputs to switch from component to component. The only coaxial would be the sattelite signal from the dish to the sattelite receiver.

Answer 2

I'm presuming its a DVD-recorder, otherwise you wouldn't have a need to. Anyways, just hook it up via a scart lead from the DVD to the satellite receiver, e.g sky digibox or whatever you have. Refer to your DVD manuel for a detailed diagram.

Answer 3

1) If the TV has no RCA inputs, one yellow for video, and a red and white for sound, looks like you need an RF modulator, which converts the video RCA and 2 sound RCA into the RF (Ariel socket) which plugs into old TV's. It will be mono sound. It uses and AC power adapter, or a smaller one uses batteries.

2) It looks like you can get a RCA to RF TV Connection adapter. Plug the RCA plug into DVD video then an RF (TV Ariel) lead into the other end and plug into the TV Ariel socket.

To get sound, you'd need a 2xRCA stereo lead linked from DVD audio out to a sound system with aux (auxillery) input..

Answer 4

Here are the steps in connecting your receiver to the tv.

1 - check your audio/video cables (usually white and red for audio and yellow for video)

2 - attach the video cable from the video output jack of your satellite receiver to your tv video input jack

3 - connect the audio cables from the audio output of your receiver to your tv audio input jacks

Answer 5

1 - Connect the coaxial cable running from the satellite dish into the "In" port on your receiver.

2 - Attach a separate coaxial cable into the "Out" port on the back of the satellite receiver.

3 - Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the single "In" port on a signal splitter. The signal splitter is used to send the same signal to multiple televisions.

4 - Attach a coaxial cable onto one of the "Out" ports of the signal splitter. Connect the other end of the cable onto the "In" port on any one of the television sets. Repeat this process for the remaining sets.

5 - Power on the satellite receiver and televisions. Select the station you want to watch and it is displayed on all of the TVs.

NOTE: You need to have a satellite dish with multiple tuners. If you don't have a multiple tuner satellite dish then you will see the same channels on all of your television sets.

Answer 6

With a satellite dish, a satellite receiver, a cable, you can watch satellite tv shows on your pc. It effectively replaces the set-top box with higher quality and flexibility. The signal will be more stable and you can have more initiative.You might use the TV tuner card, such as TBS 6981 DVB-S PCI tuner card, it allows user simultaneously receive dual DVB-S2/S TV channels,

Answer 7

Depending on the vehicle if it has a LCD or Navigation you can use a NAV-TV Video interface to add a DVD player to the car- in some instances the vehicle comes equipped with a factory DVD, you can use the DVD Bypass from NAV-TV to have Video in Motion.

Answer 8

You can hook up your decoder (satellite receiver) to a HDD/DVD Recorder. You then record a channel with the recorder and burn it to a DVD. I do this with a LG RH1888H but there are many other recorders available
