I have bought the old decoder and need to set up the satellite dish. I had signal for approx one minute, then lost it. What is the angles in azimuth and height to set up the dish?

The angle and azimuth depend on the position of the satellite. Contact any technician. Gopakumar Gopalan Google
It is not easy to predict the exact angle and azimuth. You should have a signal meter to proceed.

Can't get to correct channel for satellite reception

Use the menu button on the face of the receiver. Go to settings-satellite-signal strength-view signal meter. At that point, if your readings are zero, it's one of of four things: misagligned dish, defective LNB, defective cable/fitting, defective receiver.

Screen view area or size, font and channel logo are too large and outside the viewing area, how do we reset ?

Using your cable remote or satellite tv remote as well as the one that came with the television itself. Press the hd zoom # button on the cable remote. Satellite tv remotes will have format or aspect. For satellite tv receivers you may have to go into the menu on the satellite tv box to adjust the picture format i.e. 1080i crop and etc.

Make sure you have the television on the right input for hd and that the cable box or satellite receiver is displaying 1080 i.

My olevia 42 in the imagen is biger than the screemI don't see complete the head

Hello Bernie - Using your remote, press the Menu button, move to the right to the Screen menu, On this menu go down and choose Aspect. Here you have four options, Full, 4:3, 16:9 and Panorama.

Depending on your source material one of these will give you the image you want for what you are watching.

If you're watching TV through a cable or satellite box then there will be similar settings in that set-top box that will also affect screen settings. Not knowing if you are using a STB or what kind I can't help you directly with that. If what I suggested doesn't help and you are using cable or satellite call your providers tech support to learn how to change those settings.

Pleasant viewing and thanks for asking Fix Ya.

I have a sony (model KP61V75) a split screen came on (two pictures) and I cannot figure out how to get it back to one screen. Im going crazy!

Some television remote controls have a PIP OFF button, while others only have a PIP button that needs to be pressed repeatedly until the PIP/Twin-View window disappears.

NOTES:

Some Sony rear projection televisions have a FLASH FOCUS button that will turn off the PIP/Twin-View feature.
Some Sony universal remote controls, if programmed to operate a Sony TV, can disable the PIP/Twin-View feature by pressing the REC or ENT button.
If the original TV remote control is not available or is not functioning properly, auto programming the television tuner orperforming a power reset may deactivate the PIP/Twin-View feature.
If pressing the appropriate buttons on the TV remote control does not work, then the PIP/Twin-View window might be from a two-tuner cable or satellite set-top box. If this is the case, use the remote control provided with the set-top box to remove the PIP/Twin-View window.

I cant reset parental controls

Activated by a PIN number, you can set Parental Controls on your TV and/or cable set-top box to control the programs that can be viewed on your TV. There are three ways to block programs:

By Channel
By Rating
By Time Period (Not available in all areas.)

The V-Chip understands television program ratings and blocks programs based upon the rating level selected. All TV sets that are 13 inches or larger are required to incorporate the V-Chip technology. Parents set rating levels so that certain TV shows need a password to be viewed. For more information on the V-Chip and program ratings visit the FCC V-Chip site.
Several cable and satellite companies offer parental control options. They allow specific channels to be blocked so that they cannot be viewed.These companies also offer the ability to block shows based on language, violence, nudity, and rating levels. This offers more flexibility than the V-Chip.

Hope it helps ;-)

I think my kids have pushed a button and the screen is got borders on the side and picture condenssed

If you have cable or satellite and a cable box or satellite box it is probably its remote. Look for the hd zoom # button or format button or aspect button to change the picture size.

Someone may have also changed the input on the television. Your cable or satellite box might be connected to two different inputs on your television so you have to make sure the right television input has been chosen with the television remote.

There should be a zoom, view mode, aspect or etc button or setting on your television that adjusts picture size.

Some television programs just broadcast like that and there is nothing you can do while that particular program is on to increase the picture size.

How to see local channels in HD with a traditional antenna?

If your set does not have an ATSC tuner, for HD, then you need to be using a suitably equipped STB.

Your satellite STB - box - should take in OTA channels and display them as part of its normal operation, tho. It takes in the antenna signal from your roof antenna and displays the HD version of your OTA channels, if it is an HD STB, along with the HD channels it gets from the satellite overhead.
