TV, VHS, Cable box, Wii Set up.?

Hello, I am not sure that this would fall under a Rio problem but I do need help with my VCR/TV/Cable Box/Wii hook up.

Alright, I have the cable box hooked up to the VCR player via black cables ( sorry dont know their name) Then I have the VCR hooked up to the TV. The cable signal is coming though and I am watching cable TV. Now I am trying to attach my Wii to this setup, I have the red, yellow, white cables hooked up but I can't see the wii chanel screen. When I turn on the VCR I get nothing but static. Can you help????

VHS: DDV9490

Wii: Standard

    Try attaching your yellow-video, red/white-audio cables from the wii directly into an input on the back of your tv rather than the vcr. If you do that, look under the input and see what it's called, like video 1 or something like that. Then select that input from your tv's remote input/source button.
