DVD player to be used with TV & Roku box

I have a Roku box attached to my Vizio TV.  I tried connecting my DVD player using the HDMI cable that. Came with it but when I access the input menu on my TV, it says my DVD player is not hooked up/has no connection.  How do I do this?  Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

    Is the DVD player turned on?

    You'll probably find more detailed help in a Vizio TV forum.  In general when multiple things are connected to a TV, they are independent of each other and the TV is in charge of selecting them.

      Thank you.  I will try that.  I know a lot of people think DVSs are old fashioned but I'm old school 😁
