My sylvania dvd will not play my full dvd. If you are watching a movie it will only play about 30 minutes of the movie and the go to a black screen for about 10 minutes and then go back to the title menu, and if you are watching a dvd series it will only play 2 episodes and then go to a black screen and then go back to the title menu. I have tried to return it to the store but they will not take it due to the pandemic. Has any one else had this problem and if so how can I fix it

Heavily used discs have caused many of the most common DVD player problems, for example, the DVD player reading errors as well as jerky/choppy DVD playback. Take the disc out of the player and visually check if there are any scratches on it, or play the DVD in another DVD player. Before you throw the scratched DVD away and buy a new one, fix the scratched DVD using toothpaste or convert the scratched DVD to digital files to play smoothly on TV/PC.

Fixing the picture size My sylvania tv screen is small but the picture is stretched out and a lot of the text is cut off from anything I watch, is there a way to fix the picture or reset the tv?

Try a reset to this TV and check. There are two types of reset to TVs. The first is simple to do; a Hard Reset. The other is somewhat skilled; is a Factory Reset (System Reset). To make it a hard reset, just unplug the TV from AC mains wall socket, and re-plug it back after 15 minutes or so. If you do this by overnight is better. This procedure will make it a hard reset. If you want to make it a system reset [Factory Reset]; you have to enter its service mode option, and select the factory reset option. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. Surf the site with patience. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ Service mode entry, adjust and exit procedure to many popular brand TVs are given. Never forget to exit the service mode, after all adjustments have been done.

Sylvania CT-R1628SRJ blows fuse

It's the fuse in the electric engine. You can bypass this fuse by cutting it off and then you just connect the two ends together, wrap with electrical tape. It'll work, that's what I did to mine. Works great again

I have a sylvania VHS/DVD-R recorder/player. I recorded home videos to dvd-r/cd, but after I copy/burn the videos to a blank cd using my PC, I get a cannot play, remove disk error notice.

Did you finalize the DVD before you removed it from the VCR/DVD recorder? Until a disc is finalized, it won't work on another device. If you left some space, try to finalize it now. Does the disc play when in that Sylvania unit? It is possible that the unit is faulty and didn't focus the laser properly for writing to the DVD. (If you actually tried to burn to a CD and not a DVD-R, then no data was written to the disc. There are slight differences to the laser settings for CDs and DVDs.) I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

My flat screen Sylvania TV is flashing different colors what's wrong

Better late than never. The problem is that your TV is in the service mode. There are many ways this can happen. But, lets just get down to fixin this! With the original remote and the TV on. If the TV will not shut off, do this. Press the left cursor button on the remote, followed with pressing the right cursor. Power off the TV with remote, or press off button on TV. Secondly, your TV will power on and off. But you have flashing colors. Do this. With the original remote and TV on. Press the up cursor button, on the remote, followed with pressing the down cursor. Power off TV with remote, or press off power of TV. Thanks for asking me, Matt of Martins TV Repair.

How do I get the manual for sylvania SCR1388B

Curtis International which made the Sylvania clock radio no longer has any support for its legacy electronics. ManualsLib has manuals for several Sylvania clock radio models here: https://www.manualslib.com/brand/sylvania/clock-radio.html . They have a link for the SCR1388B, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/944856/Sylvania.html . This document doesn't list the SCR1388B on the cover page. However, the two clock radios are probably similar enough that the manual will help you use your clock radio. If this manual doesn't provide enough details, please check some of the other manuals listed at the first link above. I hope this helps. ManualsLib does provide an option to get the manual as a PDF. See the Download button near the top of the page. You will need to go through some CAPTCHA checks to download the file as a PDF. Cindy Wells

How do I get my Sylvania MTS/SAP tv to switch over to video mode

Hi Elsie- If you do not have the remote, you can change inputs by doing the following: Changing inputs Inputs are selected by using a number of methods, depending on the model of your Sylvania TV. Switching inputs is usually accomplished by pressing the "Input Select" button on the remote. Each press will simply cycle through each available input on your TV. If no remote is available, the front panel has a button that matches the function on the remote. This button is located on the bottom-right side of the TV and doubles as the "Enter" button when accessing onscreen menus. Hope this helps.

Sylvania TV SLED 5550-UHD.I want to connect my wireless headphones,b bu the TV audio mutes. I need both to work at the same time.

To keep it short, that is the way most tvs are wired nowadays, so you are out of luck. You are limited even on Bluetooth connections to only two headphone sets. There are some ways around it though if your tv sound output is going to a decent receiver with its own speakers.
