The DVD player hooks to the TV, not the satellite.

Why are you trying to hook it up through the Sat?.... the PQ would be better hooked directly to the TV for #1.

Does your TV only have 1 composite in?... if so a switch box or splitters might be an easier way to go... and the switch box option would help the PQ alright, VS splitters or Sat.

If you're running the cables to a "video in" on the Sat, you may need to switch the sat to that "video" selection... or run everything through coax-cable, but the PQ would be horrible I'm sure.

If you can toss out some more info I'm sure we can help you.
