Connecting TCL TV to DirecTV
I can't figure out how to connect my TCL TV to a DirecTV cable box. It's not the large cable box - it's the smaller ones used in the bedrooms, etc. Thank you.

Again no, the box decodes the signal.

In most cases you plug an HDMI cable into both.

I' not using an HDMI cable - can I connect the DirecTV cable to the DirecTV box, by-passing the cable box?

That has an A/V output port that you can plug in a composite or component 10 pin din cable that DTV may send you or you can buy them online provided your TV has those inputs to connect to.

Can I bypass the DTV box and plug directly into the TCL TV?
