    Hooking up a DVD/VCR combo with no input/output antenna jacks...
    Hi all... I have to buy a new dvd/vcr... My old one had the input/output antenna lines and most of the stuff being made today does not... I also have a DirecTV box that needs to be hooked into all this too... Which I assume means I have to use the red, yellow and white cables which I have never done before... Anyone here that can tell me what goes where on this, and how I tie the Directv box into it all?.

    Or, does anyone know if new dvd/vcr combos are still being made with the in/out antenna jacks...

    Thanks...

    You can get a Modulator for about $5 at the dollar store, it converts the red, white and yellow to coax output.

    Red, white and yellow(composite video). Red and white is audio, and yellow is the video. Nothing tricky. Connect out from 1 device into an input. Be sure the correct source is selected.

DVD/VCR Combo without Coax input? [ 4 Answers ]

My old VCR died. I'm in the market for a DVD/VCR Combo. Both salesmen I talked to today said that regular DVD/VCR Combo units are no longer made with Coax input, and that the only way I can use the VCR to tape is if I have Digital Cable with a cable box or satellite TV. When I asked if they had...
