SOURCE: video 1 and 2 no picture on tv

I think that's your problem. Try taking the cords out and putting them back in. I often mix up the white and yellow ones so that might be your problem.

SOURCE: NO AUDIO/set up problems

For this Sony, you have to use separate audio cable(s). Either optical in BD or Digital Audio in DVD (single coaxial cable will do the trick) I bet the display says UNLOCK. I had the same problem, very dumb.

Good day!

SOURCE: We are unable to have sound for the DVD player and game systems

The receiver is looking for a specific "audio input" It's currently locked on analog or digital. Using the Sony remote, go into the main menu for the receiver, toggle to audio and select "auto" that should do the trick. Hope this helps

SOURCE: Trying to hook my Wii up using the AV audio Jacks

Connect the Wii to your television. Then connect the variable audio output from the TV to the audio in on the monitor section of the receiver. Then use the TV/SAT input selection on the receiver and dolby prologic 2 as your sound mode.

SOURCE: No play back from HDTV to threater system

Do you have set-top-box or antenna-cable directly to TV?
You have connected TV with received via HDMI, but that won't work in this direction - TV has HDMI INput only, not output.
You can use HDMI to connect HDMI-out on DVD player for example to HDMI-in on receiver and HDMI-out of receiver to HDMI-in on TV.
But to get sound from TV to the receiver, use spdif optical or coax cable if TV supports that - this way you will get surround sound.
But also your connection via analog white/red RCA plugs should work, but only for stereo sound.

Does the Magic Sing ET19KV require a special "3.5mm to 3 RCA" cable? How to get it to work with aftermarket "3.5mm to 3 RCA" cable? "3.5mm to video only" works.

Hi
firstly check that the 3.5mm plug has the same number of contacts as the original there should be 4 segments

The three rca plugs are coloured red white and yellow
white is left audio,red is right audio and yellow is video
usually composite video.
some tv,s have an rca input some have two
and some have rca outputs
the sockets on the tv are also coloured to match the plugs
please check that the plugs are inserted into the correct
coloured input sockets

I would plug in the 3.5mm plug then the yellow untill i get video,once i have video i would connect the red plug untill i have sound,same with the white

How to connect samsung ps50c55og to sony dav s500 home theatre system

You need a set of normal rca cables (red.yellow,white) and another single rca cable..
OPTION 1 :If you have a digital satellite receiver, Connect the 3 colour cables to the corresponding colour jacks on VIDEO 2 of your dvd player to corresponding colour jacks on the VIDEO OUT Of your digital satellite receiver...Connect the single stand alone rca cable to MONITOR OUT on your player to the VIDEO IN input of your tv..

OPTION 2 STRAIGHT TO TV: connect the 3 colour cables directly to the corresponding colour jacks on the SIDE of the tv...Connect the single stand alone rca cable to MONITOR OUT on your player to the VIDEO IN input of your tv..

OPTION 3 IF YOUR PLAYER HAS AN OPTICAL INPUT: if this is the case you can just connect a single optical cable to the optical ports on your player and tv and this will enable the sound from your tv to play through your dvd player as well

How do i wire red white and yellow rca to an xbox 1 av plug. my av plug has blaack white orange and green wires

In the old school standard AV: Red and White are usually audio channels (Red:Right - White:Left), Yellow is video.

Orange can be coax audio, (both L&R channels in one cable). Before digital (optical) came out, some receivers actually had a coax (orange) jack in the back. Radio Shack sells a splitter if necessary.

In higher resolution systems video is separated into three colored cables: RGB or Red, Green, Blue
called 'component' video. The green cable carries Yellow, the blue cable carries (PB) Blue and the red cable carries Red (PR). And with today's tech, the component signal is carried YCBCR as (digital video.) cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YPbPr

Component 'wire colors' are there just to remind us. If your TV has "Component" input. Try green to green, white to yellow and black to red. Orange to audio (splitting L&R if necessary)..

Also, here is a PS3 link that might help: http://www.ps3hax.net/showthread.php?t=9238
Good luck !

Have to use composante video cords to connect home theatre now colour is funny, would help if manuals were colour

If you are using "composite" cables, the colors are:, yellow(video), red(right audio), and, white(left audio). Which you would match you yellow to yellow(in and out), and so on.This set of cables will give you picture and sound. "Composite" cables are blue, red, and, green. They provide a higher quality picture but, no sound. If you use composite cables, it sounds like you are with the funny color, you have to make sure that they are "pushed " in all the way or you will get off colors. if you used these cables either watch yourself or have someone watch while you twist and try to insert cable and you will probably find one wasn't in far enough. When using component cables for video you will have to use an additional, either red and white composite cables or digital optical(better) cables for audio.

With the use of rca/video cables and the Samsung composite cable, how do I connect to an audio/video receiver(surround sound)

There are alot of different options when it comes to your connection basically , it comes down to quality and what in and out jacks are available to use. To me 'composite cables" were always the red, white, yellow combo where, yellow is video and red and white are l/r sound. "Component cables" were always red blue and green. The component cable provides a higher quality picture but, does not carry sound, like composite. To gain sound using component cables, you have to add either your yellow composite or a digital optical cable, again, depending on what your system will accept. HDMI carries both audio and video at the best quality and is easy. To answer the question for what you have if you have "composite"(red, blue,green) this will provide the best picture but, you will have to use the red and white "composite" for sound.

DVD surround sound to come through TV at same time?

use nothing but RCA output and input to all equipment. you will need a video cables..its three cables seem/connected side by side together with all male jack at one end and to the another end. the cable are color coded; (you can get this wire from walmart or radio shack, staples and make sure you get at least 5-6 feet long cables) yellow is for video and red for right audio and white is for left audio. everything is color coded on your TV,VCR and your reciever, you cant really get it wrong on the color. fist take one of the yellow video cable to your your tv input and to your vcr output, next take the red and white audio cables and plug it in to your vcr output and to your receiver input. that should do the trick. any other question just ask and i will try to walk you through. good luck!

How to connect to TV

The Yellow/Red/White connectors are Composite+Audio
Yellow carries a composite signal and Red and White Carry left and right audio channels.

Red Green Blue Connectors are Component
Each coloured connector carries one 'component' of the picture

So yes, your extra set of red white yellow cables would be fine to use, just make sure you connect the same colors at each end red-red green-green blue-blue

However..... the red green blue only carry the video, you will still need to carry the Audio, this is usually done either by the red and white (L & R stereo) or your DVD may also have an optical or coaxial output to carry the sound. if there is no equivalent connector on the TV then you may be stuck swapping the red/white cables, usually though there would be 2 sets of red/white connectors one set to go with the yellow, one set to go with RGB.
