Can I hook up my tivo to a dvd player?

how do I hook up my dvd player, tv and tivo box?

• Answer:

  to be honest with you, your Tivo box should have come with directions that would answer these questions for you, and there are some pretty pictures to go along as well. But basically you need to look at the back of your TV and make note of what types of inputs are available, this will then give you an idea of what you can connect, and what cables will be needed. So, your Tivo, will take in your video signal (cable/Satellite/Antenna) and based on your recording requests; record your favorite shows - then your Tivo will connect to your TV via one of your available inputs; and then your able to watch your daily TV programs. Your DVD player will need to use one of the other available inputs on your TV; and when you want to watch a DVD movie, you will use your TV remote to change inputs to your DVD player, and then you should be able to see your DVD player screen and use the DVD player remote from there.
