Answer 1

Red and White are both audio, for stereo sound. If you just use the white you will only get mono.

As to where to put them if your talking about the TV you will plug them into the input. If your TV is really old it may only have an input for mono, if that is the case don't use the red plug.

Answer 2

Hook them up this way.

yellow plug ( video) to TV video-in

red plug ( audio R) to TV audio R Line-in

white plug ( audio L) to TV audio L Line-in

R=right

L=left

Both red and white are for stereo audio, and yellow for video
