i have an old TV, with only 3 audio/video cable connections in the back which my satellite TV is connected to

is there a connector, or a hub of some sort that will allow me to connect my dvd player and sound system to my tv without having to disconnect my satellite everytime i want to watch a dvd on my tv? any links to these products?

  1. What kind of sound system do you have?

    The right receiver can do this switching for you.

    Provide a model number for all that you have and a good idea of hook up can be provided.


  2. You can use an "RF Modulator" for the DVD player that takes the Yellow/Red/White cables from the DVD player and converts it to channel 3 or channel 4 signals. These run about $25.

    A better choice is a "AV Selector Switch". You run the audio and video from your Sat box, your DVD player, your Wii, and the one output goes to the TV.  These run $30-$80 - but have the advantage they dont try to convert the video to anything.

    Check Monoprice for cheap selector switches or go to your local Radio Shack to see what they have.

  3. Yes, it's called a switch. Check radioshack.com
