360IBL audio questions

I'm trying to figure out how to get the TV to play through the stereo speakers. Can't figure it out for the life of me. Clearly I need to get the audio output of the TV to the stereo but all I see is the yellow/red/white wires coming out of the back wall.

There are also red/white/yellow cables coming out to the left of the stereo which I'm assuming is connect a dvd/vhs from the storage area up to the TV.

Any ideas how this can be done? I saw what looks like a headset jack input on the front of the stereo but that seems like a really crappy way for all this to work (headset jack adapter to a red/white RCA cable).

To listen to the TV through the speakers all I had to do is tune the radio/DVD player to AUX 1, if I am mistaken try AUX 2. I did not have to do anything with the wires as they were hooked up by the dealer. I added a Blue Ray player and hooked it up by using a HDMI cable between the TV and Blue Ray player.

Ok so that make sense when playing through the DVD player built into the Jensen system. I never played a DVD in the unit.. duh.. I've brought my bluray player each time and did as you did, hook up the player via HDMI to the TV. If you are hooking it up to the TV and using the Bluray player essentially bypassing the Jensen player, how are you playing the sound through the stereo speakers from your bluray player? I would think you are only going to get the sound out of your TV speakers that way.

Would you mind taking a look behind the TV and see what cables if any are coming out of the wall into your TV? I didn't go with the factory TVs so the cable wire and RCA wires were the only ones hanging out unplugged obviously.

Thanks a bunch for the reply.

Does this help? I imagine that the TV acts as a conduit to the stereo as I get sound thru the speakers when I play the blue ray.

Thank you for the pics. My camper is at the dealer for a week getting some small things taken care of. Once I get it back, I'll compare the pics with my setup and see what I get working. Obviously as you stated if I play a DVD through the Jensen radio, audio will be played no problem.

Thanks again and Ill post back my findings and any questions I have once I see everything in person.

If there is an audio out on the tv that gets hooked up to any aux input on the back of the jensen unit.

So finally got the camper back on Saturday and just went out there to try to figure it out. Was able to get the audio/video working with the RCA cables through the Jensen system and ceiling speakers. Man when you are used to HD and HDMI cables, what a crappy picture those RCA cables produce from the DVD system. So Thanks for that.

Any clue what the 2nd set of RCA cables are for that are back there behind the TV? I see you have 2 sets plugged into your TV. Is that for when you are watching cable so you can play the audio through the stereo?

Haven't brought my Bluray in yet but will attempt that when we leave on Wednesday and get settled at the campground.
