What does it mean when your TV say AV?

This means it is tuned to receive input through the audio / video jacks, as opposed to a broadcast or cable signal.


How do you connect your video components together with s-video cables My old TV has only the YWR video jacks and two S-video jacks. I need to tie together a satellite receiver DVD and VCR player?

Find yourself an S-video switchbox and use that. You can get them with three or four inputs and it'll make life a lot easier. They're not all that expensive, either and in the neighborhood of $10.00 or a little more. Since the TV has three inputs, I would connect them by picture quality; s-video provides a better picture so use those two for the DVD and satellite. Use the yellow phono jack for the VCR since they are low picture quality. Use the red/white phono jacks for the sound. If you only have one set of the audio jacks, it would be a good idea to use an AV receiver to do the video/audio switching for you.
