Your TV determines which type of video connection you can make with the DVD Digital
Home Cinema System.
If your TV has a single Antenna In jack, you need an RF Modulator to view DVDs on your TV.
The RF Modulator converts the Video signal from the System so it can play through the
TV’s Antenna In jack.
See your electronics retailer or contact
Magnavox for RF Modulator availability.
