Thanks for all your help last night and I now have my DVD working. I pressed the TV/Video button on my tv remote and it worked :)
Want to know what I'm watching until the Packer game starts?
"...you think I'm funny. I make you laugh. You think I'm a clown."
We must have woke up at the same time.
Glad it worked. Now go and waste some time (Wait until you learn how to get surroundsound installed).
Good for you and enjoy it. Have fun.

TERRIFFIC!
Jolly good! I really do recommend you seek out a component (red/green/blue) cable (when you hook it up, I believe you would hit the TV/Video button one more time to get into Video 2) whenever you can. You are using a composite cable, which is a step in quality below an S-video cable, which is a step in quality below a component cable. If you don't care about that stuff at all, ignore.
Oh, yeah. If you ask for a component cable at Best Buy, they will probably try to steer you to a very expensive Monster Cable, but you don't need all of that. A generic component cable will do.
Hmm. Looking around, it looks like the chains only carry the expensive cables. Amazon has some starting at $8, but I'm thinking you should probably forget this advice if the only ones readily available are $30+.
