I got the two in one player and I'm not sure if I could only rely on the kind of cable that screws into the line in/ line out or do I need the cable components in order to use the vcr or dvd player.
Answer
It's going to depend on what your TV supports. You'll want to use the best type of connection that your DVD/VCR and TV supports.
In descending order of preference:
* Component video
* S-video
* Composite video
* Coax (what you call the screw-in line-in/line-out)
Any of these will work, but you should make the effort to use the best connection supported by your TV and combo player.
Also, if you have a surround sound receiver, you might want to consider connecting your VCR/DVD to it for surround sound while watching movies. Most of the time this will be an optical audio cable or a digital coax cable. Again, check your manuals to see what's supported.
One final thing - when shopping for cables, avoid Monster brand. They're really expensive, and don't perform any better than cheaper cables. In reality, unless your living room is right in front of a large radar dish, even cheaper cables will work just fine. You really shouldn't need to spend more than $10-15 for any of the cables I've talked about.

Problem connecting DVD player to TV/VCR Combo?
SupaJ016
I recently inherited an old Panasonic Omnivision VCR Plus TV/VCR combo. I just plugged it in, set up the channels and stuck in a VHS tape. It works. Intending to set this up in a spare room for guests, I thought it would be nice to connect a DVD player to this as well. The TV only has two jacks on the front though: one video and one audio input. So, I plugged in these cables and connected them to the corresponding video and audio outputs on the DVD player. I get a picture but...no sound. Is there anything I can do to fix this??
Thank you.
