My Sony google tv has only one set of rca inputs.Can I use 3 of these so that I don't have to unplug my dvd player to plug in my Wii? Are they safe?

they are safe but you want to make sure there are no open ends, cause you could have signal loss. hdmi is better id possible look in to a autio reciver then you would only have one cable going to the tv a receiver would handle every thing.

Probably not the best plan. Obtain appropriate A/V switcher box that fits your budget.

If they use RCA cables, then probably yes. This is a splitter just for RCA cables. I have an old TV and only one input, so I got this to switch back and forth between Dish, Roku and my DVD player. So there's one set of cables from the 3-port to the TV, and then all three devices are plugged into the port. But if any of your devised use and HDMI or USB cable, it won't work.

Yeah, I ended up buying component cables for my consoles. The only problem is the game cube is now B&W; since I plugged it's video cable in the first component input. Not an issue, I can use the Wii to play them if needed...Thanks for the reply!

If your DVD has an optical Toslink audio output and your TV has a digital coax audio input, then yes, this is the proper device. However, if you're talking about connecting a DVD player for both audio/video to a standard coax cable/antenna input, then no, this is the wrong device. To do that... If your DVD player has composite output (red/white/yellow plugset), use Audiovox part # CRF907R If your DVD player has component (red/white/red/green/blue) or HDMI, you probably should return the DVD player and find one that supports composite video, or you should probably replace the TV.

You should be able to if the tv has output RCA jacks coming from the tv or dvd player. I believe most still do.

Should be OK but use only sound from one of the input sources (RCA or Mp 3 input) at a time.

I use RCA cables and it works just fine. Switch back and forth between my TV and PS3.

No. There are 3 ways you can hook up a DVD player, the HDMI being the best. RCA cable is one of the options.

I'm going to purchasing this adapter to convert from RCA to HDMI for a Wii. I'm hoping it works.However, I did come across and adapter that was HDMI to RCA (the other way around). I noticed the difference in input to output of the two different adapters. You might want to check that the input and output are in the right order for the right adapter.

Hi, just purchased Sony STRDH-720 and would like to connect my wii using component cables. The problem is no image is being displayed when i connect the cables in.Could someone point me in the right direction as to which imputs to connect the composite leads into and also the audio leads? Thank youAlistair.

To answer this more completely, from checking the manual there is one set of inputs that can be used for either component or RCA (composite) input (red/white/yellow).

I did buy one of these, and it did not work with our Circuit City store-brand TV. I ended up buying two others before I found one that worked (neither of them from Amazon), so I think it's kind of hit or miss. This RCA unit is a good place to start; see if it works, if not then keep trying?! I know, not the answer you were hoping for, sorry.

I used my optical audio output on my tv to get sound from my wii. Everything else comes from the hdmi inputs. Cable box (Input SAT), roku ( input dvd), and buleray player(input BD) all hooked up hdmi to the sony tower then hdmi to tv. Wii hooked up with component connectors to tv then a optical audio cable from tv to sony tower (input TV).

It has 3 RCA inputs. I was able to run my ps3, directv, and pc witout having to get anything extra. however if your ps3 is connected to your television with an HDMI cable, you may need something extra.

I have a regular TV (Standard Def) with component inputs, can I use this player (as a standard dvd player) with my regular TV. I plan on buying a HDTV in the future and I want a standard def. dvd player for now.

I asked Sony's 800 # this same question & they said that games must be played. When the unit is turned on, it checks to see which inputs are turned on. So if you have two SAT receivers, the one you want to watch has to be ON & the other one OFF before you turn the STR-DG910 on. Sounded hokey, but I've only got 4 devices, so I haven't checked to see if they were dishing out the straight skinney yet. For video, the unit has three HDMI inputs (SAT, DVD, & Video 2/BD), 1 HDMI output, 3 componet video inputs (SAT, DVD, & Video 1), 1 componet video output, four composit video inputs, & three composit video outputs. No S-Video. For sound it has the three HDMI inputs, the one HDMI output, 3 reassignable optical inputs, 2 assignable coaxial inputs, 6 pairs of rca inputs, 3 pairs of rca outputs, and 4 identical rca sub-woofer outputs. Yes, the high quality HDMI & Componet inputs duplicate SAT & DVD, so if one has more than 4 high quality devices, games must be played. When the unit is turned on, it checks to see which inputs are turned on. So if you have two SAT receivers, the one you want to watch has to be ON & the other one OFF before you turn the STR-DG910 on. If you are using this unit to drive a dvi device with an HDMI-DVI adapter (a TV, monitor, or projector w/o a HDMI input), the digital rights enforcement police will prevent you from using the HDMI sound channel. Video will come thru ok, but no HDMI sound. This isn't as bad as it sounds because the unit will allow you to route the sound thru the optical inputs, coaxial inputs, or rca (yuck!) inputs. If your HDMI source has optical or coaxial outputs, you still have full home theater sound. Lastly, while it will upconvert composit & componet to HDMI, it won't down-convert HDMI to composit or componet.

I'm not sure what 1.3 tech is, but I can say that I have never had a problem with my HDMI cables. I am running this TV through a Sony receiver using one HDMI. I have 3 other HDMI devices that are running into my receiver (DVD player, Xbox, and Directv Receiver). When you use all soney products, this TV will recognize the components. For instance, even though my DVD player is connected through my receiver, if everything is turned off, all I would have to do is pop a DVD into the player and the receiver and TV will turn on automatically.
