Can you simplify hook up , trying to hook up with manual and more difficult understanding, want to conect to TV only if possible

The first thing you want to do is run a standard RCA cable from the reciever's Monitor Out to one of the TV's Video In ports so you can see the On Screen Displays from the receiver.

Not knowing what your TV has for connectors: For minimal stereo / low-fi video: If your TV has RCA jacks for L and R audio, run them to AUX In; run the TV's Video Out to the receiver's standard Video 1 In . If you have a cable box, you could run its corresponding cables to the same places for TV viewing.

If your cable box has digital audio outputs, use them instead (best sound, multi-channel) - connect to one of the Digital In's that matches the type and assign it to TV or Cable. Use the Component Video from the cable box, if available.
