If the screen goes blank after you select a video resolution in error, do not push any buttons, but wait thirty seconds for video to come back. If it does not, see No video displayed on page 46 to fix it.

Setting standard TV video resolution

If your TV is a standard definition (SD) TV, make sure 480i is the only box checked. All other video resolutions will be output at 480i. You can still watch HD channels and they may look considerably better than their SD counterparts.
