Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

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

Connect an off-air antenna to the ANT Input to view free local digital channels where available. You might need to purchase an antenna. Go to page 6 for more information.

Visit www.antennaweb.org to get help deciding what type of antenna to use to receive the local digital channels avail- able to you. By entering where you live, this mapping program tells you what local analog and digital stations are avail- able using a certain antenna.

Are there other ways to view High Definition (HD) content?

Besides using an off-air antenna as mentioned above, you can also use a set-top box to receive digital video. Contact your cable company or satellite provider to purchase digital programming and have them connect the box for you to ensure you're viewing channels the best way.

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

As you change channels, look at the bottom of the screen. ANALOG is displayed for an analog channel. DIGITAL is displayed for a digital channel.

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

Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which does fill your screen, but sometimes is sent in 4/3 which does not fill your screen. It depends on how the station or device connected to your TV is formatting the video. If there are bars on- screen, press the SCREEN SIZE button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of the way the format is sent by the broadcaster. For more information on screen formats, go to page 28.

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. When channels are unavailable, your TV’s screen is blank or appears like snow. You probably want to get rid of these so they no longer appear in your channel list. Remove these in the Add/Delete menu. Go to page 31 for more information.

Why does the first channel search take a long time?

If you have both analog and digital channels, the TV is looking for all available channels in the channel list. If you do have digital channels, the TV is also searching for scrambled channels, non-scrambled channels, and each sub-channel of that digital channel.
