Hi Can anyone help me set up a DVD player with surround sound speakers, a sky box and possibly a recordable DVD player - although that isn't important. At the moment when I turn the DVD player from TV to DVD/CD so that I can play a DVD I have to mess with the AV on the television to get it to play so I don't think I've got something set up correctly
Ericha, since you have the satellite receiver feeding one input on the TV, you have to select another input on the television in order to see the DVD's video signal. Sounds like you are trying to fix something that is working fine.
If, however, your DVD has a video/audio input available, then you could connect the skybox's A/V signal into the DVD unit. Then you could do the switching at the DVD and leave the TV's inputs undisturbed.
