I received a Toshiba DVD/VCR player for Chistmas and haven't been able to connect it to my TV. I have a digital cable box and a 1993 Zenith TV.
Here are the connectors on my TV:
First row a) Loop out to decorder b) Ant/cable 2 C) ant/cable 1 (this has a cable that's hooked to the cable box)
Second row a) Video In (yellow, red, white) b) Video In Yellow, red, white)
Third Row a) Loop out (yellow, red, white) b) S video 1 in (round hole) then red and white
Here are the controls on my DVD/VCR player a) svideo B) Y green P8/C8 blue P8C8 red C) organge, white, red d) Out (yellow, white, red) e) In (yellow, white, red) F) VHF/UHF In (ant) out (TV)
I have a yellow, red, white cable from the TV (2nd row "A") connected to the DVD/VCR player ("D") above.
Questions:
1) Do I need to connect anything to the digital box. I don't have premium channels; just regular cable.
2) Do I need to connect anything else from the TV to the DVD/VCR player outside of the one yellow, red, white code? The DVD player came with only one other cord and the only thing it fits into is the "Out TV" or "In (ant)" listed above under "F".
I have read all the messages on this site and reviewed and printed out the photos. But still don't get it. Please don't send more photos or line drawings. I'm hoping someone can tell me to "plug row 2 of your TV" into "E" from your DVD player.
This obviously is easy for someone who understands, but I don't.
