Plug Question

HelpMeGetWii · 02-25-2007, 08:49 PM

this is probably a dumb question but i have a crappy tv and i can olny have 1 RCA plug so i have to change from my wii and my dvd player.

so my question is: is it okay if i change it? will it do anything to my wii or my dvd player?

also is there something like a splitter i can get?

It will not hurt anything to be plugging and unplugging the RCA connectors.

However, there are many devices out there that allow you to switch between components. Basically, they are like the KVM switches that people have for computers. You plug in numerous RCA cords into the back of of the box, and then plug in one output from the box into the TV. Then, you switch the device to be used on the box itself. I was shopping for them yesterday, and found several for $20US at WalMart and Best Buy.
