Can't get TV onto the AUX channel

I plugged in a DVD player to my TV (10 year old RCA model F25254GY), and need to put the TV onto the AUX channel to capture the signal from the DVD player. I don't have the original TV remote (using a universal remote now, from Time Warner Cable), and the TV has preset channels of only 2, 3 and 7. The TV used to go to the AUX channel if you hit Channel Down when you were on Channel 1, but now Channel Down from Channel 2 just loops back to Channel 7.

You can purchase an RCA universal remote that will let you access the A-V inputs. These only cost about $10.00 or so. Stargazer

On the model RCA Color Track fmr722er the auxiliary channels AUX1 and AUX2 are on channel 91 and 92 respectively. When I do a channel scan or a channel up or down, the system won't find those channel, you really have to type those numbers.

Try channel 91 or 00 - our 20 year old RCA worked with 91.

I have a similar problem with kids plug and play games that only display on aux. Have no remote, and TV loops past aux and 00 channels. Will the RCA remote work on any older model TV?

Try to get your tv channel on 00 channel. Our RCA set is 15 yrs old & that is what works for us.

Do in your menu have like VCR or DVD in the option area? If so then put on vcr or dvd. Also you can look for the channel in the add or erase area and move past the channel 2 by going the other way and see if the aux or video1 comes on then simply chose it.

I have a new rca receiver and have it hooked up to my dvd player which works fine. I have it hooked into my tv and Im not getting sesurround through my tv how can I connect to the tv to make it work my tv...

Take a clue from the 10-year old vintage of the TV and the two analog audio cables. It's Dolby Pro Logic Surround at best, not Dolby Surround in the modern, digital, multi-channel sense.

TV's are not the source nor the end of a multi-channel audio chain. Feed this thing a 2-channel source from a Cable Box (into the "TV" jacks), DVD, Video Tape or CD with proper Dolby Surround encoding and will seem to open up the sound field a bit and kick in a little surround effect. It can also simulate a Hall effect and Dolby 3 stereo.

How to hook up dvd player to tv

You need an RF modulator to convert the A/V output (RCA jacks) of the DVD player into a Coaxial cable you can plug into the back of your TV. I'm including a link to one at radioshack.com. This one costs $27.49. You might be able to find a cheaper one at a discount store. You can also use an old VCR if you have one to do this conversion but the connections get a little bit tricky. Plug the A/V outputs of the DVD player into the A/V inputs of the VCR. You'll have to set up the VCR so it knows to use the A/V inputs. Some VCRs have and AUX setting for this. Then connect a coaxial cable from the VCR output to the TV input. You'll have to setup the VCR to send it output to a specific TV channel, usually channel 3 or 4. Then you'll have to set your TV to that channel.

RCA f20580wn 20" TV about 20 years old

Hopefully you have the problem solved.

If not, the RCA plugs, listed as input 1 and 2 are shown on channel 91 and 92.

I recommend connecting the DVD to either input. Turn on the DVD. Then run the auto programming function of the TV. It will find and program the channel for the DVD. Then use the channel up or down on the remote you are currently using and you should find a working DVD.

Hope this helps.
