Hi, DVD Players and the Xbox should be connected to the TV not the DISH receiver. You need to connect all three devices to your TV and then using the inputs, cycle between the devices on your TV depending on which device you are wanting to use. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please email me. Thank you!
