Is there a way to hook up a gaming console to a Dish Network receiver?

I have no hook up on my television (it's a very crappy TV) but I do have the red, yellow, and white hook ups on the back of the Dish Network Receiver. Any help at all is appreciated.





Thanks you guys!

You probably can't run the game console through the Dish receiver. Instead, get a video switch box. Hook the Dish receiver and the game console up to the switch box inputs, then the output from the switch box goes to the TV. Hit a button on the switch box to choose the Dish or the game system.





This is one switch box at Radio Shack:

But look at the back of your TV and see what connectors it has going into it. That will tell you what kind of switch box to get. You don't have to go to Radio Shack, these may be available at Target, etc.
Reply:dish network receivers can only send video out of the red yellow white hookups. the only way is to buy one of those things that you connect to the "antenna/cable" entrance that allows u to connect the av cables
