I have a Time Warner cable box and a Sony DVP-SR500H DVD player. I'm trying to hook up the RCA cables that I do have which is red, white and yellow. It didn't work. I noticed the cable box has other colors like green and black on the back and my DVD has a green slot. Do I need to buy extra cords? I also have an old big tv from the early 90's. Thanks for help!
