Changing Channels

Depending upon the type of signals you have connected to your HDTV, you might notice that the channels change slower than you’re used to. This is perfectly normal. Digital cable channels sometimes take longer to tune.

Some channels might be found during the channel search that aren’t available. 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 displays Unusable signal. 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 53 for more information.
