How Do You Connect Your DVD Player to Your Comcast Cable Box?
To connect a DVD player to a Comcast cable box, start by tuning both the cable box and the TV to channel 2, 3 or 4, then connect the cable box to the wall. Next, connect the audio and visual cables between the DVD player and the TV, then connect the cable box and TV with a coaxial cable. You need two coaxial cables, a component cable and a composite cable.
