• Re-connect the connecting cord securely.
• The control unit is connected to an input device
that is not HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content
protection) compliant (“HDMI” does not light up
in the front panel display) (page 109).
• If the HDMI OUT jack is used for video output,
changing the type of video signal output from the
HDMI OUT jack by pressing RESOLUTION may
solve the problem (page 90).
Connect the TV and the control 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 “PROGRE” (PROGRESSIVE)
using the RESOLUTION button on the remote
(“PROGRESSIVE” lights up in the front panel
display) even though your TV cannot accept the
progressive signal. In this case, disconnect the
HDMI cable from the control unit and then select
“INTERLACE” (NORMAL) so that
“PROGRESSIVE” indicator turns off.
• If the signal from the VIDEO OUT (VIDEO) jack
is distorted, change the type of video signal output
from the HDMI OUT jack by pressing
RESOLUTION to [720 × 480p] (page 90).
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 control
unit directly to your TV, try connecting your
control unit to your TV’s video input (except for
the HDMI jack) (page 21).
Even though you set the aspect ratio in [TV
TYPE] of [SCREEN SETUP], the picture does
not fill the screen.
• The aspect ratio on the disc is fixed.
Color irregularity occurs on the TV screen.
The subwoofer 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 m 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 further
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.
