i have a cox cable connection on my vizio hd tv screen i attached the cable to the wall and to the tv then went to tv and scanned for channels... well it takes a while to scan but doesn't find any channel's .. does anyone know if i have to change the in put to TV,AV1,AV2,COMP,RGB,HDMI1,HDMI2 or the source to cable or antenna (it seems pretty obvious but this stuff seems so confusing i dont even know where to start anymore) o and im pretty sure its not an hd cable
 
Well going straight out of the wall without a box will not let you pick up chanels unless your TV has some sort or tuner (quam or some sort, which a vizio will not) so if you do not want to pay for an HD box or anything like that you can get some cheap rabbit ears/intenna and you can pick up HD local channels and some others and will look a LOT better than straight coax cable.
