Analog RCA output jacks have no signal - Mitsubishi M-VR800

To connect your audio receiver to your Proview 3200 flat screen TV, you can use RCA cables. Here are the steps:

Locate the RCA jacks on your TV and audio receiver. One jack is white, and the other is red.
Plug the white RCA cable into the white jack on the TV and the red RCA cable into the red jack. Reversing them will cause the stereo signal from the TV to be incorrect.
Take the other end of the RCA cables and plug the white and red ends into an available RCA input on the back of your audio receiver.
If your TV doesn't have RCA jacks, you can use a digital-to-analog audio converter to connect your TV to a 5.1 audio system that has only RCA inputs 1. You can follow these steps:

Unbox the digital-to-analog converter.
Connect the optical cable to the converter.
Connect the RCA cable to the converter.
Connect the other end of the RCA cable to an available corresponding analog audio input on your audio receiver

First this solution will be fraught with potential problems:
1. There is no simple monitor outputs and inputs on the NR535.
2. The NR535 analog inputs/outputs are unbalanced, where the Behringer EQ is completely balanced (TRS or XLR)
3. Insertion of the EQ is analogous with inserting an effects device in an audio loop which in the case of analog surround will cause de-correlation or the companding sidechain making for non-compliance/performance issues.

OK, now the solution can be as follows:

Since the NR535 has a Zone 2 channel, you can use these L/R RCA outputs to make an effects loop. To do this you will need to make or buy RCA to TRS (1/4" phone Tip Ring Sleeve jacks) that you will connect from the Zone 2 outputs to the CH1 and CH2 inputs of the EQ. You will need another pair of the RCA to TPS to connect the output of the EQ back to one of the RCA analog inputs on the back of the Receiver.

Now once this is done, you will be able to Map Zone 2 input to any of the inputs other than the one you are using for the output of the EQ. Let's say you have mapped Zone 1 to your gaming station. This will patch the audio from your gaming station into the EQ and back into your previously connected analog input. At this point, you can leave Zone 2 and select your analog input which is your EQ output, which is your Gaming station. If you don't have any output, you may need to go back into the Zone 2 setup and adjust the volume level.

When you don't want the EQ in the signal chain, just select the input source other than the input used for the EQ's Zone 2 output.

I am not sure if this will work for all situations as you may have technical conflicts between analog and digital audio on some inputs. In any case, this will work with analog signals and I don't see any other simple solution for your case.

I hope this solution can help.

The TV will have either a Digital Output, Optical Output, and simple RCA jacks, left and right analog. Use any open input on your receiver, and switch that input to digital or analog, whichever is appropriate for the input signal you are using. You can also take the audio output directly from e cable or satellite receiver and wire it into you receiver, as I mentioned above.

When you use an HDMI cable with your PS3, the system is outputting the signal in a digital format. You need to tell it to switch back to displaying in an analog format to use the RCA jacks, otherwise it won't work. To do this, turn off your PS3. Then, once it's off, press and hold down the power button on the system. After a few seconds, it will beep and reset the output signal back to analog. Just make sure only your RCA cables are plugged in when you do this. Hope this helps!

The Sanyo has stereo analog LINE INPUT jacks. Run two RCA audio cables from the TV to these jacks and select this LINE INPUT FUNCTION on the Sanyo. If the TV has no analog audio output jacks you can even use the headphone output by using a 3.5mm adapter to RCA audio connectors.

The first step is to check what types of outputs provides your Nintendo, the most common is video composite and stereo outputs (yellow, red and white RCA jacks), the second sted is tochek if your TV has the same type inputs, then you must have the cable (with 3 RCA plugs at both sides), these are analog signals, if your TV has only digital input signals (HDMI) and your Nintendo doesn't, you'll have to get a converter from analog to digital video and audio.

For all DVD players, It will support analog if there's an RCA output jack (just like the old ones) for Video (Yellow) , left and right Audio jacks (white and red). S-Video connection is also analog.

If there's none, then that means you have to use an adapter to convert it to analog..

If you're using a box that has an RF (antenna) output on channel 3 or 4 to the TV, you can insert a splitter and feed two sets. A splitter looks like this:



It takes the signal in on the single connector side, and splits it between the two output jacks on the other side. You can find splitters at TV retailers, Radio Shack, and even at Home Depot or similar stores in the electrical section. Run a cable from each of the output jacks to the antenna connectors on the two TV sets. Each TV will need to be tuned to the converter box output channel, and both sets will get the same program (whatever channel you have selected on the converter).

If the converter box has audio and video output jacks and the nearest set has an AV input, you can connect that set with the same kind of cable you use to hook up a DVD player (RCA plugs on the ends) and select the AV input to see the converter box signal. You would run a cable from the RF output connector of the converter to the second set's antenna jack. Then you wouldn't need the splitter, and the set using the AV inputs would get better quality picture and sound. Again, each set will get the same program as determined by the converter.

Hope this is what you need to get going. Thanks for using Fixya!

The 'quick and dirty' way is to connect the VCR playing the tape via the RF OUTPUT coaxial connector to the RF (sometimes ANTENNA) connector on the recording VCR with it set to channel three or four. BOTH units must be set to the SAME channel. The better way is to use the RCA jacks and all but the very oldest should have a yellow jack (Video) output connected to the other unit's (yellow) video input and for sound, the output white jack connected to the white input jack (left channel) and the red output jack would go to the red input jack on the recording unit. This latter method yields a cleaner signal than the first method.
