Anonymous-63826,

I would be happy to assist in getting your picture back.

If this is on TV1, verify the type of cable being used. If it's a Coaxial Cable, try Ch. 3 and 4. If it's an RCA (Red, Yellow, White), HDMI, or YPbPr (Red, Green, Blue) try switching the TV to a video input matching the connection and see if the picture turns.

If this is on TV2, try Ch. 60 and 73. If no picture appears, then access the Modulator Setup from Menu > System Setup > Installation > Modulator Setup and see what's listed for TV2 Out. Try the channel listed, and if nothing try switching it from Air to Cable or Cable to Air and try again.

If the problem continues, let me know here or at [email protected], and I would be happy to try some additional steps!
