Coax Switch

Can I use the same cables equipment for Cable TV and Direct TV minus the converter boxes and dish?

I would like to switch from Direct TV to cable TV. The ceilings in our basement are drywall so accessing the cables to each TV is almost impossible. Can I use the same coax cables that I’ve currently got hooked up to my TVs if I switch from Direct TV to Cable TV and avoid having a costly custom installation job? They say they want to run their own cables which I think is just a rip-off

As a television engineer for over 35 years, I can tell you that there is no reason they need to run new coax through your house. Let them know that if they continue to insist on it, you will file a complaint with the local franchise authority that permits the company to do business in your community.

Composite Video + Audio (L/R) to HDMI through Receiver?
Conceptually, should you be able to output composite video and audio (L/R) from a DVD player into an a/v heir, and only output HDMI from the heir to the HDMI input on the tv? I recently purchased the Denon 4308ci as my AV beneficiary. I have a Sony XBR5 as my tv/monitor. When I hold HDMI OUT on the DVD player connected to DVD HDMI IN on the receiver, and HDMI OUT from the Receiver to HDMI IN on the tv, I successfully take both video and audio on the tv. However, when I hook up composite video OUT and audio (L/R) OUT from the DVD player to composite video IN and audio (L/R) IN on the receiver, while still maintain the HDMI connection from the beneficiary to the tv, I get video merely, but NO audio/sound on the tv. Am I doing something wrong? Or could this be a bug with the Denon? I own tried hooking up 3 different components (2 DVD players and a Tivo) to the AV receiver contained by this way.. but no audio… surrounded by each skin.
