How do you connect to a direct tv box

You can either connet it in the back by using a coax cable or you can use your red white and yellow cables to hook it up. If you use the coax cable your dvd player has to be on channel 3. and if you use the red white and yellow cables you have to be on the right input just channel down under channel 3 and when your direct tv shows up on the tv you know you are on the right input
