on your HD TV set. Each TV set does this differently, but many TV sets have a
button marked “Video source” on the remote control. You will need to find the correct

If you are using HDMI to connect to your HD TV, MediaMVP-HD typically adjusts the HDMI
setting automatically. For some HD TV sets, the automatic settings do not work properly.
There are a few things you can do in this case:
- you can use the MediaMVP-HD
Setup menu
to manually set MediaMVP-HD to HDMI
video settings. To do this, we suggest you connect both the Composite video and HDMI
video to your HD TV at the same time. If you do this, you can see the MediaMVP-HD screen

HDMI to see if you have chosen the correct settings.
- you can use the Component video connections, which are also high definition but do not
attempt to use automatic settings and therefore will connect more easily
