What sort of cables? "RCA" or Composite (red/yellow/white wires for video/audio), Component (six wires, various different colors), optical (skinny round cable, you can see a red light in it if you look carefully, the port probably has a cover over it that's square), or HDMI (flat, sort of like USB but wider and thinner, connects video and audio)?

Consider the position of the TV relative to the DVD player - the magnetics can cause interference in the cables, if they are analog (Composite), or even in the speaker directly. That's a common one (was for me last time I set up a system with analog cables). Also could be the connector(s) themselves - try a different cable if you have one.
