Is there something else I need to switch or turn on/off with the HDTV or VCR??

(My Dish 722 would not work with the Components/toslink combo either. The HDMI works just fine.
I am not sure how you have things hooked up, what do you have the toslink hooked to.?
Your 722 can be hooked to TV with component (red, blue and green) then you need red and white for sound or HDMI alone
The VCR should use (red, white and yellow or S) to TV
If you want to record on VCR, feed (red white yellow or S) from 722 to input on VCR No need for any Toslink in this set up, VCR does not have toskink and TV does not have a toslink input.Sounds like you want to use component and toslink to feed 722 to TV, will not work, TV does not have toslink input.
