How to find your TV’s Video Input Channel
In order to see what’s playing on your DVD Player, you need to tune the TV to the Video Input
Channel that corresponds to the jacks you used to connect the DVD Player to the TV.The Video
Input Channel(s) varies for different brands and different models of TVs. If your TV is an RCA, GE,
or Proscan brand, the DVD’s remote probably operates it. Just press the TV button, and then
press the INPUT button until you see the DVD’s main menu, screen saver, or the disc you’re
playing. If your TV is another brand, check the list below:
Consult the instruction manual that came with your TV.
If you can’t find the information in the manual, or can’t find the manual, review the following list.

There might be a button on the TV’s remote control that accesses the Video Input Channel
(see table below for examples).

You might select the Video Input Channel from the TV’s on-screen menu system.
•
You might tune to it by pressing a specific channel number (see table below).
