connecting headphones to DVD player
Comments (23)oh well you have every type of connection on there you could get and you only need ONE! IF you have an HDMI cable that goes from your TV to the DVR player that is it that is all you need disconnect all those other cables! the HDMI is video and audio all in one cable that is the advanatage of HDMI one cable and the highest quality. The other options are only to be used if you are using devices that do not use HDMI. So plug the HDMI cable to either the DVR or the DVD depending on which one you want to use, then use the the red and white RCA jacks on the tv (it does not matter if there is a yellow one beside it that yellow is for video not audio so you will use the red and white only) plug your headphones red and white male cords in to those red and white female out jacks on the tv. That is all! leave all other cords out of the equation. As long as all of your devices that you want to connect to the tv have HDMI use that. IF your tv did not have HDMI then you would use the 3 colored ones yellow white and red that carries video on yellow and right and left audio on the red and white. Ok try that just the HDMI cable and your head phones. BE sure that the source input on the tv is set to HDMI if that is what you will be plugging the DVR or DVD into, if the source input is not selected on the tv you will not be getting the signal. This statement right here is very baffling -a 3-prong (yellow, red & white) from the TV (video out) to the three middle (audio out) jacks on the DVR. you state you are going from tv out to DVR out you can not go from out to out there has to be an IN for anything to work. But you do not need those cables so remove them completely from the equation. HDMI out from DVR to HDMI cable IN on the tv period. Headphones base unit red and white male plugs into the TV red and white female audio out jacks. Period...See Moredvd player on magnavox tv/vcr/dvd combo not working.
Comments (2)i agree, when you have a part of a combo go bad you toss the whole thing. or you can go pickup a 29.95 DVD player and plug it in teh AUX input. i had a JVC VCR a couple years ago would try to come on and then shut down. total cost of repair, including shipping was 100.00. i paid it the 1st time since this was a high end commercial grade unit that cost well over 500.00. the second time it did it i tossed it in teh garbage. if this had been and off the shelf unit, i would not even have thought about getting it fixed....See Moreconnecting headphones to DVD player
Comments (8)Actually, I just happen to have the same DVD recorder/player (under the Costco model number) in one of our rooms. So, I just double checked and confirmed that the analog R/L audio is still available when using the HDMI output. The audio OUTPUT is the second set of of red/white connectors when viewing the back of the DVD player (from left to right). Make sure you have the proper connection. Again though, does your television have line level audio output connections? Do you have the make/model number of the television?...See MoreTV is on the wall-where to put receiver/dvd player/cable box
Comments (4)If you do put the equipment in a cabinet or closet you will need a way of controlling them. Furnlite makes an infared repeater that controls six pieces of equipment. The infared eye is very small. Only requires a 1/2" hole. I don't think they show on their website yet. Sligh Furniture, http://www.sligh.com/sligh.php, uses them on their entertainment pieces. Here is a link that might be useful: FurnLite...See MoreAlisande
