Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What’s the quickest way to view High Definition (HD) video?

Connect an off-air antenna to the ANTENNA DIGITAL INPUT to view local digital channels. You might need to purchase an antenna. Go to page 18 for more information.

How do I tell an analog channel from a digital channel?

There are several different ways to tell if your channel is digital or not. Press the INFO button to display the channel banner. Look at the lower left corner for a channel number. Channels with a primary channel and a subchannel are digital channels, but not all digital channels have subchannels. The lower left side shows a 'D' for digital channels and an 'A' for analog channels. If it's a digital station you might also see a digital TV program title and description shown. Page 33 also has more information.

Why does channel search find a lot of channels, but when I try to tune to them there’s nothing there?

Some channels are enabled by the cable company that don’t carry programming, such as video-on-demand. You probably want to get rid of these so they no longer appear in your channel list. Remove these in the Channel List menu. Go to page 17 for more information.

Why does the first channel search take a long time?

If you’re searching for analog and digital (both) in the Channel Search menu, the TV is looking for all available channels in the channel list. If you do have digital channels, the TV is also searching for each subchannel of that digital channel.

How do I control other devices I’ve connected to the TV?

Because your TV came with a universal remote, you can program your remote to the button corresponding with the device you have connected to your TV. Go to page 24 for information on programming your remote.

Why are there black bars on my screen and can I get rid of them?

Analog channels are normally sent in a 4:3 format, which cannot fill a 16:9 screen like your TV. Most digital channels are sent in a 16:9 format which do fill your screen, but sometimes are sent in 4:3. It depends on how the broadcaster or device connected to your TV formatting the video. Aspect ratios are determined by the broadcaster and may change from one program to another. The Autoformat feature in the menu allows the TV to select the best picture format for the signal received. Go to page 44 for more details.

You can use the FORMAT button on the remote to see the different formats available that might eliminate the black bars. The format type is displayed on screen. No other options are possible aside from those you see by cycling through with this button.

Note: Format control is not available for digital 16:9 broadcasts.
