How to Find Your TV’s Video Input Channel

You need to tune your TV to the Video Input Channel (or S-Video Channel if you connected the S- Video cable to your TV and to your DVD Player) to see the DVD Player’s menu and to see the content that’s on a disc. The video channel on TVs varies for different brands and different models. In order for your DVD remote to work, your TV must be set on the correct video input channel.

•If your TV brand is RCA, GE, or PROSCAN, press the TV button on the TV remote (not the DVD remote). Then press the INPUT button on the remote.

•If you have another brand, consult your TV’s Owner’s Manual.

If those options don’t work, try one of the following options.

•Press a button on the TV remote (see table below).

•Select it from the TV’s menu system.

•Tune directly to the DVD input channel by pressing a specific number (see table below).

•Go through all the channels in the channel list by pressing the channel up/down buttons on the TV.
