Hi, I am trying to set up my home theater but I am continuing to have issues. Mostly because the coax-in on my tv is busted and I cant get a signal to it. I was also hoping to run audio from my cable through my sound system somehow. Thanks in advance for your help.
Here are my components:
TV: s-video, 2 sets of RCA connections (red, yellow, white), coax in (BROKEN!)
DVD player: digital audio out (orange), RCA out, hi def RCA? (blue, red, green) out, S-video
Sony Surround Sound System: Digital SA/CD CD in, DVD in (orange), 4 sets of audio RCA ports (red and white)
X-box 360: RCA (red, yellow, white), and (blue, red, green)
RF Modulator: Coax RF to TV, Coax Ant in. Output: RCA (red, yellow,white),s-video Input: 4 sets of RCA (R,Y,W) and S-vid
If you plug your cable coax into the RF Ant. In on the RF modulator and RCA composite video (yellow) out to your TV can you get a signal? If not then the easiest way to solve your problem would be to get a cable box, that would open up a few more options for you.
I tried that but couldn't get a signal (contrary to what best buy and circuit city told me). Ill take a look at some cable boxes also. Do you think an old vcr would work?
I hooked everything up as you suggested and it works perfectly. I had to go buy a couple extra cables to make all the connections, but that was no big deal. Thanks so much for your help.
