most dvd players has a hdmi connector at the back, so simply take your hdmi cable out from back of your cable box or satellite box and plug it to your dvd

Don't think it sends HD Might send DVD if you connect transmitter directly to DVD player.

Thompsom, You must connect with a port into back of the unit. I have a AVH-P5900 DVD.

You are right. It only has RCA connectors, which works great for me. I have purchased a number of these multi-region dvd players for myself and as gifts for my sister and my niece. If you have problems with the RCA connectors, you may want to check out one of the various audio/video selector boxes, which would allow you to use a/v selector box with the RCA connectors on one end and some other connector on the other end to connect your multi-region dvd player. The dvd player itself is one of then best I have ever used; it's easy to connect and works very well. Moreover, it's about to lowest priced unit on the market. The truth is in terms of overall quality, you can't beat it. I hope this helps you with your decision.

No, it cannot. The only video connections available are the component ones.

Yes, there are several sets of RCA connectors, to connect older equipment to the unit, and its one of the reasons I brought it. The VCR will have to use RGB connections in order to run HDMI to your TV from the receiver, but I have a VCR, turntable with a pre-amp, Blu-Ray player, and a tape deck connected to mine, and I have connections to spare. I did have to use a preamp to connect my old Marantz turntable to a set of inputs, but they are reasonably priced.

Don't think that's possible. Pretty sure you need the USB port - plugged directly into my DVD player's USB port.

If you already have all the wiring for the existing DVD player, then you should just be able to connect the existing wires to the appropriate ports on this player and be good to go.

No. This cable is for DisplayPort, not HDMI. If the DVD player also has a DisplayPort output (not likely) then you could.

yes you can connect regular speakers and a regular DVD player you do not need a smart TV for this

It can be connected if the tv has composite audio outputs. Some older ones however, only have inputs in which case you can't. If that is your situation though, you can always connect the video (yellow) output from the dvd player to the video input of the tv while the audio outputs (red and white) go to to the audio receiver.

I set up the TV with the regular cable and the power plug. I used a hi def cable for my dvd which I already had which you would need to connect a dvd player. I hope that answers your question.

No, the speakers only have connection ports for standard copper speaker wires. An A/V receiver with RCA connections for your DVD player can get the sound to these speakers to offer a typical set up.

I have my computer, a dvd player and surround system hooked to it. You can direct connect a dvd player with an HDMI cable.

Yes you can as I already tried it just to make sure it worked out of the box quickly so I didn't go through unplugging my old DvD player if it didn't work. If your new monitor has built in speakers you will get sound and video. If you do not have speakers then you will get no sound,I believe there is something you can get to have the audio go out to computer or something else but I don't know what that is offhand.

There are "Video" input jacks (audio only) on the back of this receiver. You can connect your dvd player's audio cables into this jack. Note: you cannot use a digital coax or any other digital cable. It has to be regular analog interconnects. And, as "Outlaw Audio Seller" has already stated, this is a TWO CHANNEL STRAIGHT STEREO RECEIVER. It is NOT multi-channel.

The answer is no you cannot connect the speakers directly to the television without the DVD box
