Ant In or AV?Earlier, I had connected the Satellite Box to the TV on AV1. And the DVD/VCR to AV2. These connections are through those sets of 3 (Red, White, Yellow Cables) Today I tried connecting the Satellite box to the TV using the single Antenna In Cable. I didn't notice much difference in quality. Is there any advantage to using AV1 over Ant In? Next, I am thinking of connecting the Satellite Box to the VCR & the VCR to the TV through the Ant In. i.e. I get everything on TV (Channel 0 for DVD/VCR & Channel 1 for Satellite). So now I just need to shift between channels for shifting between Dish & DVD instead of moving between TV & AV1 & AV2. Any advantages/disadvantages? Show quote

The RF out from both the combo player and sat box will not pass stereo sound. No reason you couldn't hook up the RF out from the sat box to the combo player for recording and keep your current A/V connections as well. Another option is to split the sat box A/V outs and connect one set to the combo player for recording to get stereo recordings and the other set to the TV so you don't have to turn on the combo player to watch the box in stereo with the better video.
