• The unit is connected to an input device that is not
HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content
protection) compliant (“HDMI” on the front panel
does not light up). See page 100.
• If the HDMI OUT jack is used for video output,
changing the type of video signal output from the
HDMI OUT jack by pressing VIDEO FORMAT
may solve the problem (page 21).
Connect the TV and the unit using a video jack
other than the HDMI OUT, and switch the TV’s
input to the connected video input so that you can
see the on-screen displays. Change the type of
video signal output from the HDMI OUT jack,
and switch the TV’s input back to HDMI. If the
picture still does not appear, repeat the steps and
try other options.
• You have selected “PROGRESSIVE” using the
VIDEO FORMAT button on the remote
(“PROGRE” lights up in the front panel display)
even though your TV cannot accept the
progressive signal. In this case, disconnect the
HDMI cord from the unit and then select
“INTERLACE” so that “PROGRE” turns off.
• If the signal from the S VIDEO OUT jack is
distorted, change the type of video signal output
from the HDMI OUT jack by pressing VIDEO
FORMAT to [720 × 480p]
*
(page 21).
* Depending on the country, [720 × 576p] may
appear.
Picture noise appears.
• The disc is dirty or flawed.
• If the picture output from your system goes
through your VCR to get to your TV, the copy-
protection signal applied to some DVD programs
could affect picture quality. If you still experience
problems even when you connect your unit
directly to your TV, try connecting your unit to
your TV’s S video input (page 20).
Even though you set the aspect ratio in [TV
TYPE] of [SCREEN SETUP], the picture does
not fill the TV screen.
• The aspect ratio on the disc is fixed.
Color irregularity occurs on the TV screen.
The center speaker and the front speakers in this
system are magnetically shielded to prevent
magnetic leakage. However, some leakage may
occur, as a high-strength magnet is employed. If this
happens, check the following items:
• If the speakers are used with a CRT-based TV or
projector, install the speakers at least 0.3 meters
(1.0 ft) from the TV set.
• If the color irregularity persists, turn off the TV set
once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes.
• If howling occurs, reposition the speakers farther
away from the TV set.
• Make sure that no magnetic object (magnetic latch
on a TV stand, health care device, toy, etc.) is
placed near the speakers.
