The DVD player hooks up directly to the back of your flat panel using one of those cords w/ three colored plugs on the end (one red, one yellow, one green)

It can be hooked up to either cablebox or directly to TV.
IMO, you should hook it up directly to TV. Look on the back on DVD player. Tell me what you see...
composite, (1 yellow)
componenent (1 red, blue, green)
svideo (hole with a bunch of little holes in it)
btw, this is mcdo15 @ peabody's house... I tried to help you with this before I think..but this was a while back

.... sorry..some tv's it possible but hard. if you can access tv, then go though your dvd player.
If you have a HD DVR box, the input is in the front, if you don't have DVR, its on the back. Use a red, yellow and white wires (Yellow = video) and Red (right) and White (left) are for audio.
