How to get rid of groud loop noise from dish ?

I just bought a sony 9000 DVD player, but when I connect the component connecters to my tv I get ground hum in my stereo system. I tried filters on the incoming coax, but the signal from direct tv will not pass through it(it did get rid of the hum). Does anyone have any suggestions?

happy to be of service, per usual...
Simply use a clean (no oil residue) wire brush on that coax shield to scrape away the oxidized metal for a better connection.

I tried Bobs fix but no dice. Still have the noise. I tried all sorts of filters(including ground blocks), they work for cable but the dish signal will not pass through. My house has aluminum wire,I wonder if that is a problem.
