Do I use the red white and yellow in the front or the red white and yellow in the back of the TV of the recorder

Solution
Most of the front connections (recorder or TV) are inputs. On back panel, you'll find inputs (for TV and recorder) and outputs (for recorder). So, you'll connect recorder' output to TV' input to watch recordings.

If you want to record TV programmes, you'll have to move the antennae to the recorder. In most cases, you won't be able to record from modern settop box (cable, dish).
