Clear sound with jumping picture

If you get a clear picture using your DVD player, then the problem may not be the TV, but rather with the satellite decoder, or the wiring from the source to the decoder.

It still plays but no sound... probably the line going to the screen, but check the settings and try a CD that worked before....

Keep me posted...

It is the signal from the 4 local stations that is the problem, because you can record all others ok. Borrow another VCR and try to record them, if its the same tell the people who run the local channels that they are losing viewing figures, because their channels cannot be recorded.

Double-check your input cables from the receiver to the LG 389. Do you have the sat. receiver AV out connected to the front AV In on the LG DRT389? Make sure that you haven't mixed up the L and R audio connections on either side. (I've done something similar with RCA cables myself.) Next, try a different set of cables.

If that doesn't work, there may be a problem with the audio jacks on either your receiver or the 389. To check, plug the AV cables from the Sat. Receiver directly into the TV. If you have sound and video, then the input jacks on the recorder may be damaged.

Try using another input. (It looks like some models have the SCART input; you may need to set the input source in the menu under AV2 Decoder.)

The fact that you have audio output on USB and DVD's means that cables/connections between the LG289 and the TV are fine.

I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the details of which AV port you are using on the LG389 for additional assistance.

Some of their very old sets the video input was located on channels in the 90's; Try scrolling down from 99 to 90 to see if you locate the video input; this is just the way they did things in the older sets.

Before you rate this solution let me know what you find first.

open the recorder, 4 screws at each corner, wipe the playing head and the voice reccognition head, to the right of the playing head head with a baby wipe, you will be amiazed what **** comes off it. DON'T scrub it just wipe lightly, spin the playing head so it's clean. If you have a lint free cloth ( a glasses cleaning cloth you get in the case is brilliant) Try the tape (before you put it in make sure everything is DRY!) and your problem should be solved. It worked for me! and that came from a TV engineer

Hi,
Please check the video connections properly, if you are having any problem with the sound system you wont get even sound and hence please check the video connection wiring properly to resolve your issue.

1. Yellow wire is picture and the 2 red is sound

at the dvd player plug in the picture wire by av out, at the tv plug the yellow wire in av in.
The sound is the same sound out at the dvd player look for a L R this means left and right at the tv there should under av in next to the picture wire you pluge the soun in
hope this is clear to you

It may be that the tape you are trying to record from is copy-protected. You will then get a "scrambled" picture

Hi There is an I/P button on your player's remote control. Power your player on then press the I/P button on your remote control.
