Symptom

Remedy

No picture.

• If your display device is not SD (480i) compatible then the 480i to HDMI converted video will not be

 

displayed. In this case, connect using the component, S-video or composite video jacks.

 

• Depending in the output settings of the source component, it may be outputting a video format that can’t

 

be displayed. Change the output settings of the source, or connect using the component, S-video or

 

composite jacks.

 

• Try changing the Resolution setting (in Setting the AV options on page 66).

No sound, or sound suddenly ceases.

Check that the HDMI AV setting is set to AMP/THROUGH.

If the component is a DVI device, use a separate connection for the audio.

If analog video is being output over HDMI then there will be no HDMI audio output. Please use a separate connection for the audio.

Check the audio output settings of the source component.

Noisy or distorted picture.

• Sometimes a video deck may output a noisy video signal (during scanning, for example), or the video

 

quality may just be poor (with some video game units, for example). The picture quality may also depend on

 

the settings, etc. of your display device. Switch off the video converter and reconnect the source and display

 

device using the same type of connection (component, S-video or composite), then start playback again.

 

• If the problem still persists when connecting your HDMI component directly to your monitor, please

 

consult the component or monitor manual or contact the manufacturer for support.
