okay ran a coax to my primary tv and ran autoprogram. it quickly learned two channels (50 and 60) and works flawlessly through the TV2 output via coax. The picture is horrible but I'm okay with that as the secondary TV is too small to even matter. Well I'm glad to find out that there is...

apparently there's 3 different model tvs with similar model numbers... Mine is a 19mf337b/27 which according to the magnavox website has only a digital tuner, while the other two options have both analog and digital tuners... My primary might have an analog tuner, so i'll try that one right now...

The TV is a Magnavox MF337b/27... In the autoprogram menu it says it will search for available analog and digital channels however I cannot find anything that mentions an analog tuner.. It does have RCA inputs so those just might be my solution.

Just read up on the tv. Looks like it has a digital tuner only. I still don't understand the purpose of being able to select between air and cable but that's no real issue. ...So can i put something inline to convert the signal to work with my tv rather than running all new cables??

well hmm.. I've plugged the tv into an old antenna in my attic and pulled channels, but then again, that was pretty recent so they may have all been digital. I'm confused. The tv has options for both Air and Cable, and so does the receiver... Shouldnt it just work? oh wow I know a lot less...

The tv's autoprogram has both air and cable options, so it should be able to snag the analog output from the receiver right?

I'm not sure how the TV1 modulator works... Does it use the home distribution output as well? I tried setting an air channel for both TV1 and TV2 (channels 50 and 60) then ran the autoprogram on the second tv with no luck. I even went into the menu in the tv and manually set channels 50 and 60...

Thanks for the help, It seems that the output must be shorted as I have tried practically every option with no luck. I don't know how I could have shorted it, but i suppose it is possible. I don't know if I can get an RMA on the receiver because I bought a refurbished unit from a small shop...

I recently had a Vip222k installed in my house. I planned on adding another tv but only had my main tv (connected via hdmi) when the reciever was installed. The installer told me that adding the second tv would be simple -- run coax from the reciever's home distribution output directly to the...
