My Entertech system has RCA output and worked well with my older tv. However, it does not work with my new VIZIO HD system. Any fix for this?

I suggest buying a RCA to svideo adapter. What are your video input on the tv?

Just be careful, some TVs don't have RCA outputs or headphone jacks. Then you need a digital to analogue converter (i think that would work, I am working on this problem myself.) Or I believe you can hook it straight to a cable box to avoid all that (with RCA cables.)

I do not know. I would suggest you contact the VIZIO technical and ask that question.

Hi Ken,Did you try it? Did it work? I want to run the Bluray player or TV HDMI sound out to RCA in to my stereo to get more sound out of my tv.Martha

If you have an "old" reciever that uses RCA inputs you will need a NeweR reciever that utilizs a HDMI cable. I said the same thing, then bought a newer reciver 3 years ago . hope this helps.

The FiiO D3 Digital to Analog converter does work since my Vizio LED TV only has a digital output. I use it for my wireless stereo headphone set since my wife does not like a loud TV and gives good quality sound.

what you need to do is get a RCA to headphone jack if your TV have headphone jack. or a optical to audio converter if not the sound will not come out.

Not familiar with your TV, but on my Vizio, there is an RCA Audio Out. I use this for my headphones, works great. Cannot put TV on mute however, thus you also lose sound in headphones. To use headphones alone, just reduce volume on TV.Hope this might help.

I agree. All the new receivers require HDMI connections. If your TV does not have an HDMI connection for TV input then it will not work. The older TV's had the component cables (Red, Blue and Green).

I have 3 Vizio TV's from older to brand new. It works on all of them. I also notice that suprisingly channel, volume and off/on works on my LG TV too. My guess, and that is all it is, is that it will work.

yes I got this device for that exact reason you need an optical cable and then just a pair of RCA and you are set. remember to take the caps off the optical cable before putting in the optical input on the boxes. look for digital optical cable on amazon. I got mine for about $5. good luck. works perfectly.

I am using it with Samsung smart TV without any problem. On the setup I selected the Onkyo brand from the list and now it is working control by the TV smart remote system (just on/off, the volume should control by its own remote). I am not sure that the Vizio have this feature or not. Please ask Google.

Is there another TV that you can try the antenna with? Are you sure the adapter for the connector on the RCA receiver is the right one and inserted correctly. I had problems getting a connector that worked.

I have a Blue Ray with digital audio output, the video is with HDMI, but I want to connect the audio to an amplifier. It works fine with DVD and Blue Ray disks, but when I want to play a home made CD of music, it distorts with noise. The device will convert your TV output to rca, sure, but I can't tell you if you will hear noise. Is cheap, so you can try.

I have a Samsung Smart Tv and had the same problem to begin with. I had to go into settings and enable the TV to send audio back down the HDMI cable. Not sure where that is on Visio. Also, make sure you use the proper HDMI plug on the receiver. Only one accepts audio from the TV. Of course, if your TV can't send sound as well as receive it thru the same HDMI, you'll have to use an optical cable or digital connection to get surround from your TV. Hope this helps.

I'm an Old School holdout. Never had cable, never will. There's enough on broadcast TV to distract me from real life. Odd you should ask this question. To answer, YES. I had an old giant CRT running off an Insignia DTV box without any problems right up to the day the tuner in the TV went belly up. I retained the DTV box to feed my VCR (Yes, I still have several of those) and added the Vizio with a splitter. The Vizio did not like this arrangement and refused to accept some channels. I finally had to feed the Vizio from another antenna outlet across the room. This solved the problem (mostly) but I have an annoying coax cable running through the bedroom. Depending on the weather the picture and sound will break up at times. If it really gets unbearable I watch the programming through the DTV box that far outperforms the Vizio direct tuner. Unfortunately this arrangement only allows a reduced screen and fuzzy captions. In my opinion the tuner capture capability of the Vizio is borderline and a real disappointment. I'm running a roof mount antenna in a suburban area.
