    No! Only thing that ever hooks up to the receiver is your TV and Ethernet cable if you want it hooked up to the internet. All others go to TV itself. When you want to watch a DVD you just change to the TV input you hooked it up to.

    You can not connect anything to the DirecTV receiver box. It only allows output from our services. You should connect your DVD player to another input on your TV

    You do not hook up anything to your directv receiver - they do not have imputs - hook up recceiver directly to the tv and the dvd player directly to the tv using different ports.
