I have Charter digital cable I have a dvd/ vcr player that feeds through the digital cable box. I hooked the cable into the tv set the cable setting and ran the auto channel setup I got nothing but a snowy screen. What can I do to correct
Hi and welcome to FixYa,
Initially, pls confirm if below is how it is wired using a coaxial cable and not 3cable RCA to RCA:
If yes and your concern is snowy or no signal on the TV screen, might it be that you have to power OFF the DVD/VCR when selecting channels on the TV itself (including when channel setup is being done).
Alternately, you can tune the TV to channel 3 and let the DVD/VCR do the channel selections.
Pls post back results. Good luck and thank you for using FixYa.
Heres The Order Exactly As It Should Be. Cable From Wall To The In On The digital cable box. Then From The Out On The Digital Cable Box Run A Cable To The In On The Dvd/Vhs Player. Then From The Out On The Dvd/Vhs Player Run A Cable To The Cable In On Your Tv.
Power OFF the dvd Player Turn On The Cable Box Then Turn On The Tv To Channel 3 Or 4. You Should Have Your Digital Cable Showing On Either Channel 3 or 4. Now Hit Cable On Your Remote And Change Channels.

That was i not the solution. I had to obtain a hdtv cable box from Charter and purchased a HDMI cable . My TV is showing a beautiful picture.
