I already have the dvd player so what else do I need ?
I use a very sophisticated piece of equipment known as a "dead VCR"

Take said dead VCR (mechanically dead but electrically alive) and set it for "line in", feed with baseband video and audio, take RF out to TV antenna in via a 75 ohm to 300 matching transformer. Voila: sophisticated, suave and (best of all) free!

If for some strange reason you don't already have a dead VCR, let me know. I probably have one (or a dozen) laying around.
