OTA Polaroid HDTV

[SLCunningham]

I have an older Polaroid HDTV (FLM373B). No cable. I get Netflix and Hulu thru my DVD player, connected to the HDMI port on the TV. No problem watching these at all. I tried to hook up my antenna to the tv (works great on my other tv sets) and cannot get the menu to access the 'HDTV' option to scan channels. I have made sure the correct input is selected on the tv. I have been told it may be a bad tuner? If so, is there something I can get to run the antenna thru to get OTA on this TV. Or a way to hook the antenna to the dvd player so I can get OTA stations?

No way to connect a OTA tuner to your DVD player. You could buy an external OTA tuner that would connect to the TV with HDMI.

This one will act as a recorder with the additional of a USB drive. Some have multiple tuners.
