What Do I Need to Attach My Old TV to DVD & VCR?

If you want to connect a DVD and VCR to an old television set that is not equipped with RCA audio-video input jacks or a coaxial input, all is not lost. You simply need to augment your TV with a couple of adapters

  1. Adapter for TVs without A/V Inputs

    • In order to connect a DVD player to your TV, your TV needs to have A/V input capacity. If your TV is not equipped with A/V inputs, you need to purchase an RF modulator.

    Adapter for TVs without a Coaxial Input

    • If you want to connect a VCR, a DVD / VCR combo device or an RF modulator to your TV, your TV needs to have coaxial input capacity. If your TV is not equipped with a coaxial input, you need to purchase a 75--300 Ohm matching transformer.

    Cord Considerations

    • In addition to the adapter, you will also need the proper cords and cables to make your connections. To connect a DVD player to your TV, you need one set of RCA audio-video cords and a 75 Ohm coaxial cable. To connect a VCR or DVD / VCR combo device, you need two 75 Ohm coaxial cables.
