how do you hook up the cables from a dvd to the tv?

Question

where do the yellow, red, and white cords go?

Answer 1

If your TV has an "SVideo" connector (looks like a computer keyboard jack), use an SVideo cable from the DVD player to this input. This will give you a much better picture than the Yellow RCA cable.
You will also need one of:

- L/R audio cables for the sound from DVD player to TV
- Optical/coaxial digital cable from the DVD player to a AV receiver.

IF YOUR TV DOES NOT HAVE INPUT JACKS:

You need to buy a small box called an "RF Modulator". The Yellow/RedWhite jacks plug into this and you run your CATV or Antenna through this box and tune the TV to channel 3 to see & hear the DVD.

Answer 2

if there are no corresponding holes on the TV, you need toget a scart block, they can then plug into this and then into the tv.
