Alright smartazz
Ok, here's what I have hooked up right now: I have a cable running from the cable outlet in the wall to "In from Ant" on the DVD player. A cable running from "Out" on the DVD into the TV. A red and white from "Line out" on the DVD to "AV2" on the TV - the yellow is unplugged. And finally, a red, blue, and green running from "Component out" on the DVD to "AV4 input video" on the TV.
Eric...something just doesn't sound right in the way you are hooking this up.
Do you have a cable box?
Do you have a surround sound system?
Do you have a VCR or video game unit?
I don't understand why you are running everything through the DVD and not directly to the TV. The TV should have the ability to switch inputs via the remote. Look for a Video button and see if it switches inputs. It should since you imply you have multiple inputs.
If no cable box required for your TV, then hook the cable from the wall straight into the TV input. Select the input via the remote.
Component Video from DVR to TV makes sense. That only covers video feed. You will need sound cables run as well...RED & WHITE. They have to be plugged into the same input as the Component Video. Select the input via the remote.
It'd be easier if I could see what you have and try from there. I'll PM you my cell.
I am busy Tuesday helping Datsunzman reinstall a dash in his wife's Z. Not sure when I will be done. I live in Fishers, so you are close.
