What channel does tv need to be on to play dvd's

Have you seen an AV input selector on your TV or remote?

Have you start playing the DVD and run a channel scan to see if it comes across it, if so, store the channel that the TV finds.

Are you using correct cable?

Hi,

You need to hook the VCR and the DVD recorder to the scart connections on your TV.

VCR to one scart on the TV
DVD recorder to the other scart on your TV

The TV needs to be on channel 3 not channel 3.1 because is a digital channel and the signal from the VCR is analog. Tune the TV to channel 3 to get the analog video from the VCR.

hi does your dvd player have scart lead connection if yes select av1 or ext1 thanks

on you tv must be a button "video/tv",you have to push this many times to find front, back or video1 or video2 (depent were you plug the dvd)and there is were supost to work. no on channel 3 or 4

if your DVD player supports a HDMI cable a single cable is enough for both audio and video channel.

but both your player and TV must support HDMI.

try turning your dvd player on and then doing a channel search if that does not work just buy a RF modulator and hook up your dvd player to it and it will run on channel 3 or 4 and will switch over by itself when you turn on your dvd player

on some of these older RCA try simply tuning it from the remote down to chanel 01 or 00 this may work. if not you have to go into the setup menu of this set and enable the aux inputs

The easiest thing to do would be get a new TV plain and simple sounds as if you could use one n e ways. But first make sure you are hooked up through coaxal to the tv that will allow everything to run on channel 3. Let me know your current hookup.

Hi, try switching your tv to channel 3 or 4 and see if that works- there should be a switch on the back of your DVD player beside the Coaxial Cable outputs-it will allow you to use Channel 3 or 4 as the default to play dvd's. I hope that helps-if more detail or wiring diagram is needed-please leave make and model numbers and i'll try to help.
Cheers and have a Happy Holiday Season!
