Nope. The cable box would have to have INPUTS, outputs wont work. What
you'll probably need is an RF modulator, available at Radio Shack, Target,
CC, BB, etc...it shoudl allow you to connect both the cable box and the DVD
player to the tv. Does the tv/vcr combo have any video inputs? If it does,
you'll get a much better cable picture by using one of the video out jacks
you mentioned in your post on the cable box...
