Symptom

 

Solution

 

 

 

 

 

Sound problems

 

• Check the antenna/cable connections (see Chapter 2).

 

 

 

• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another channel.

 

 

 

• The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.

 

 

 

• If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to STEREO mode (page 84).

 

 

 

• Make sure the Speakers function in the Audio Setup menu is set correctly (page 86).

 

 

 

• If you are not receiving a second audio program from a known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set

 

 

 

to SAP mode (page 84).

 

 

 

• If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program you are watching (such as music or a foreign

 

 

 

language), the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to STEREO mode (page 84).

 

 

 

• When using an external audio amplifier, if you connect the amplifier to the VAR. AUDIO OUT terminals, the

 

 

 

volume of the TV and amplifier must be set above 0 or you will not hear any sound (page 20).

 

 

 

 

 

Remote control problems

 

• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device mode (page 28).

 

 

 

• Remove all obstructions between the remote control and the TV.

 

 

 

• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the batteries (page 28).

 

 

 

• Your TV remote control may not operate certain features on your external device. Refer to the owner’s manual

 

 

 

for your other device to determine its available features. If your TV remote control does not operate a specific

 

 

 

feature on another device, use the remote control that came with the device (page 28).

 

 

 

• If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote control or TV front panel and you cannot turn off the

 

 

 

TV, press and hold the POWER button on the TV front panel for 5 or more seconds to reset the TV.

 

 

 

• If the TV still does not act as expected, use the Restore Factory Defaults procedure as described on page 52.

 

 

 

 

 

Channel tuning problems

 

• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device mode (page 28).

 

 

 

• The channel may have been erased from the channel memory by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add the

 

 

 

channel to the channel memory (page 43).

 

 

 

• The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block feature. Unblock the channel (page 95).

 

 

 

• If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the antenna configuration (page 41). If you are still unable to

 

 

 

tune digital channels, clear all channels from the channel list (page 43) and reprogram channels into the

 

 

 

channel memory (page 42). If you are still unable to tune digital channels, use the Restore Factory Defaults

 

 

 

procedure as described on page 52. Also see “Other problems,” below.

 

 

 

 

 

Closed caption problems

 

• If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned, no captions will display on-screen (page 82).

 

 

 

• If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear on-screen. If this happens, turn off the closed caption

 

 

 

feature (page 82).

 

 

 

• A closed caption signal may not display correctly in the following situations: a) when a videotape has been

 

 

 

dubbed; b) when the signal reception is weak; or c) when the signal reception is nonstandard (page 82).

 

 

 

 

Rating Blocking (V-Chip) problems

• If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code entering screen is displayed, press RECALL four times within

 

 

 

5 seconds. The PIN code you previously stored will be cleared (page 93).

 

 

 

• The V-Chip feature is available for the U.S. V-Chip system only (page 94).

 

 

 

 

 

Recording problems

 

• If you use the TV’s remote control to start recording, you will not be able to change inputs (page 67), open the

 

 

 

POP window (page 76), or open the FAV SCAN multi-window (page 78). If you attempt to do so, the message

 

 

 

“Not Available While Recording” will appear on-screen.

 

 

 

• If you are recording a digital channel, you will only be able to change analog channels while the recording is in

 

 

 

progress. If you are recording an analog channel, you will only be able to change digital channels while the

 

 

 

recording is in progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being recorded (digital or analog) will be locked

 

 

 

on the channel that is currently recording.

 

 

 

• It is recommended that you use the TV’s remote control to start recording. If you use a device other than the

 

 

 

TV’s remote control to start recording and then attempt to access a feature that is normally denied during

 

 

 

recording (POP mode, FAV SCAN mode, changing inputs,) the recorded audio and/or video may not be what

 

 

 

you intended to record. See pages 67 and 71.

 

 

 

• If you connected a Symbio™ AVHD recorder, in order to use its full functionality, you must first set up the

 

 

 

TV Guide On Screen® system (page 23 and Chapter 2).

 

“Now Booting” message

 

• If you unplug the power cord while the TV is on, when you plug the power cord in again, the

 

appears on-screen

 

message ÒNow BootingÉÓ will display on-screen until the TV enters standby mode. This is normal

 

 

 

and is not a sign of malfunction.

 

 

 

 

TV stops responding to controls

• If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote control or TV front panel touchpad and you cannot

 

 

 

turn off the TV, press and hold the POWER button on the TV front panel for 5 or more seconds to reset the TV.

 

 

 

 

 

Other problems

 

• If your TV’s problem has not been addressed in this Troubleshooting section or the recommended solution has

 

 

 

not worked, use the Restore Factory Defaults procedure as described on page 52.

52HM95, 62HM95 specifications

The Toshiba 62HM95 and 52HM95 are part of Toshiba's renowned line of rear projection televisions that made waves in the mid-2000s for their picture quality and innovative features. These models are particularly noted for their large screen sizes and advanced technology that appealed to home theater enthusiasts.

Starting with the display technology, both models utilize DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which provides enhanced brightness levels, deep black levels, and impressive color accuracy compared to traditional CRT televisions. With the 62HM95 boasting a substantial 62-inch screen and the 52HM95 featuring a 52-inch display, both models are designed to offer an immersive viewing experience suitable for larger rooms.

The key feature that sets the Toshiba 62HM95 and 52HM95 apart is the incorporation of Toshiba's advanced imaging technology, including HQV (Hollywood Quality Video) processing. This feature enhances the picture quality by improving image sharpness, and reducing noise in lower quality video sources, ensuring that film and sports experiences are smooth and visually appealing.

Moreover, these models are equipped with 720p high-definition resolution, offering a display resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. This level of HD ensures that viewers can enjoy their favorite movies and shows in sharper detail than standard definition. The utilization of a color wheel in combination with the DLP technology contributes to vibrant color reproduction, making for engaging visuals whether you're watching a blockbuster or a nature documentary.

Connectivity is another strong point of the Toshiba 62HM95 and 52HM95. Both models feature multiple inputs, including HDMI ports, component video inputs, and composite video inputs, making it easy to connect various external devices such as game consoles, DVD players, and set-top boxes. The inclusion of an integrated digital tuner means that users can easily access over-the-air HD broadcasts without needing an additional external box.

In terms of design, the Toshiba models present a sleek and modern aesthetic, with a minimalistic bezel that maximizes the screen view. The use of a rear projection system means they are relatively deep compared to flat-panel TVs, but this is a trade-off for larger screen sizes at a more affordable price point.

Overall, the Toshiba 62HM95 and 52HM95 remain notable options for those looking for effective home entertainment solutions. With features like DLP technology, HQV processing, and strong connectivity options, they provide an excellent foundation for building a satisfying home theater experience. Their combination of screen size, technology enhancements, and user-friendly connections makes them a consideration for anyone seeking to enjoy high-quality content in their living spaces.
