If your system includes an external DVR recorder or home theater receiver, verify
that you have properly connected the device to the set-top box. Verify that the
Record
light on the set-top box lights red when DVR recording is in progress.
•
Verify that you are using the proper input selection on your TV or home theater
receiver. If you are using a component video connection, make sure that the TV
display capability settings are appropriate for your TV. If you are using the HDMI
connection, make sure the connection goes directly from your set-top box to your
TV (or your home theater receiver). If the set-top box detects that the link is not
secure, your receiver will not transmit a picture.
•
Verify that the
HD
light on the set-top box is blue when the set-top box receives a
high-definition input signal.
•
Verify that the set-top box is set to the proper screen type and resolution. If your TV
is a 16:9 TV, you can use the
Auto Pillarbox
setting to add black borders to 4:3
transmissions, so that the picture is not stretched.
No Color or Incorrect Color
•
Verify that the current TV program is broadcast in color.
•
Adjust the TV color controls.
•
If you are using a component video connection, check that all connectors are
connected completely and properly.
•
If you are using a component video connection and your HDTV has only RGB or
RGB-HV connectors, you must use an adapter. You can obtain the adapter through
an electronics retailer.
•
Some programs may include copy protection, which means that if your set-top box
is connected to your HDTV through the component video connectors, the picture is
downgraded to standard TV quality. To prevent this from happening, use an HDMI
connection, if it is supported on your TV.
No Sound
•
Verify that all audio and video cables are connected securely and correctly. If your
system includes an external DVD recorder or home theater receiver, verify that you
have properly connected the device to the set-top box.
•
Verify that the volume is turned up.
•
Verify that the mute function is not on.
•
Verify that you are using the proper input selection on your TV or home theater
receiver.
