Selecting the correct video input on your TV In order to play a DVD, your television must be set to receive signals from the correct video input jack. Most TVs have a TV/VIDEO, INPUT, or AUX IN button for selecting the video input. When the TV is on, the word "VIDEO 1", "VIDEO 2", or "AUX" will usually appear in a corner of the screen to indicate which video input is currently selected. Before playing a DVD, locate the name of the video input jack (on the TV) that you have connected the video cable to, then turn the TV on and select the video input (on the screen) that matches the name of that jack. If you are unable to select the correct video input setting on your television, please consult your TV's owner's guide.
