I have an older TV. A YELLOW plug on top with two RED and two WHITE below it. My VCR has a yellow and a white plug. I have the

TV with 5 color plugs, VCR with 2 color plugs

The VCR is mono so it has yellow for composite video and white for audio. On many TVs that don't have a separate composite input there is in the input menu a way to select composite for the component video input. Yellow goes to yellow or green. The single white cable can be connected to the white RCA jack but you will only get sound out of the left speaker so a y connector with a single female RCA at one end and two male RCA plugs at the other take care of this.

So whats the problem?
Yellow is Video, Red and White are audio, left and right channels.
Your TV probably has component in on the back or sides, does it not have composite as well (Yellow, red and white?)
What model TV?

I don't know where to plug the cords in the back of the tv. There are two different white and two different yellow

The red and white ones are most likely audio inputs or outputs and the yellow could be a composite input.

Whats the model of your TV? Do you know? As far as I know you cannot plug composite into component.
