Default Power level differences DVR/CD player

I just bought a new receiver (Onkyo TX-SR 303), and have run into a
puzzle. Connected to the CD drive, it sounds great, with a ton of volume
(turning the volume up to 25%, in an 18x18 room, is more than enough).

But it barely puts out anything at all when I'm playing my TiVo and TV.
There is a signal there, but even at maximum volume it's not much more
than the TV's speakers. The manual, though very clear, only describes
how to hook up one component at a time, not a HT system with TiVom, DVD,
CD, and VCR all together.

I know I've got something hooked up wrong, but I don't know what. There
is a direct RCA cable link from the CD player to the CD inputs on the
receiver, and a direct connection between the TiVo's audio out to Video1
inputs on the receiver.

Any help would be appreciated --
