2016 376BHOK TV question !!!

Does anyone know what the 3 RCA plugs on the wall plate behind the main tv are for? They are right next to the satellite / antenna coaxial cable connections. I'll try and post a picture.Click image for larger version

No, none in the bunk house or main bedroom or at the connections outside. I can't figure it out

Do you have a CD/DVD/Bluray system near the entertainment center? If so, can you play a DVD and see it on the Tv? If you can see it, how is the CD/DVD player wired to the Tv?

It does have one but it is wired straight to the TV and soundbar. I thought it may allow you to hook the dvd player into the bedroom tv, but there no other hook ups in there

Unscrew it from the wall and look at the back. Maybe they're not even being used/hooked up?

Yeah I was thinking of trying that in the morning. I'm afraid that is probably right and they don't go anywhere. I was really hoping get I could use it for the TV in the bedroom but doesn't look possible

I can only think they put that in for "old school" connection for DVD player. RCA cables from DVD player to plate converts the signal to go back to the TV via coax?

Keep us posted.

I think my tv was connected to it and that was the connection to the sound bar. I disconnected it because the sound bar sucked and you couldn't use just the TV speakers while it was connected.

FYI. Keep a check on the wooden trim pieces above the sofa and stove. The one above my sofa fell off on the way home Tuesday. Was held on with about 1/8" of nail sticking through and some form of glue. Luckily it landed with the 1/8" of nails facing up and didn't damage the sofa or floor. Will re-attach it this weekend.

RCA Jacks

Yep kind of out dated in my opinion. We have them in the bedroom for that tv. I was told it was connecting externals such as play stations ect for games.

Were you able to find a better soundbar. I hooked ours up with a digital optical cable from the TV outlet to soundbar input. It helped a little but I want to came it out as well. Did you find one with the channel outputs for the outside and roof speakers?

What type of soundbar did you replace it with?

Sorry. I didn't replace it, I just disconnected the TV from it. I still use the sound bar to deliver music to the outdoor speakers.
Would like to find a better one that had different channels, but haven't a seen anything I was willing to pay for yet.
