Help. We purchased our 2010 2350 used.  We have the Samsung surround sound DVD player and a roof mounted satellite.  There was no traditional switch box to change from antenna to cable when we bought our unit. We installed our direct tv box and even put in a new lg TV.  We can watch DVDs from the samsung since we connected it to the TV via Hdmi.  All is well until my husband decided he wanted to try the campground cable.  Plugged it in and realized that something is missing.  Can anyone tell me if the PC comes with cable boxes or something other than the Samsung entertainment DVD player? Can't remember  what that box is that we've had in our previous motor homes.

Our cable line goes right into the tv and we use the TV controls to switch between antenna, av, cable, etc.  No special cable boxes.

Same with our 2010, use the TV menu to switch to cable input and then do the auto scan to find available channels.  Also have to make sure the antenna amplifier in the cabinet to the right of the TV is off, no red LED, on is for roof antenna only.

Thanks for the help.  We figured it out just after posting.  Sometimes we make simple way to complicated :-D
