Rich,
The DISH receiver (mine, anyway. YMMV) really only has one input, and
that's from its antenna. The RCA connectors are component-level audio
and video outputs; the DIN is S-video out and the F-type coaxial
connector emits TV channel 3 or 4 with stereo audio. The simplest
arrangement is to connect a coax cable from the receiver to your TV.
If your DVD player has similar F-type connectors, connect a coax from
the receiver to the IN connector on the DVD and then OUT to the TV's
ANT-IN. But I'll bet your DVD player only has RCA connectors, perhaps
S-video and/or HDMI. Those would connect to the similar connectors on
your TV. If your TV doesn't have those connectors you'll need some
sort of converter like Drew mentions.
