No picture, stuck on Video 1, volume self-adjust to maximum

My TV has had changing symptoms. Last summer, it would cycle through all the channels on its own. Then it worked fine for a few months. It was off during the cold weather, and when it was plugged back in, the TV was immediately on, stuck on video 1, no picture, and the volume level went to maximum, and would not turn off. The volume control would lower the volume, but it returns immediately back up to maximum on its own. I can now turn off the TV (new symptom), but most of the time after hitting the power button and then the menu button. Sometimes the power button will turn off the TV, it's intermittent. When I turn the TV on, the standby light flashes about 4 times, even though the audio is immediately on, but it is always stuck on Video 1 with no picture. Any ideas?

Been having sound problems for 6 months.. At first i could just adjust the volume up and down and it would come back on now it won"t come on at all. picture perfect just no sound. Tryed changing from...

ensure TV's 'mute' is not on. use buttons on TV to adjust volume up and down. if not working properly, you may have a volume adjustment on your cable modem which needs to be turned up to maximum. if sound works, all is well. if sound still not acceptable your TV needs repair.
if TV buttons adjust volume OK, and your remote for TV does not properly adjust volume, try fresh batteries. if
remote still not working properly, you can buy replacement on EBay or try a genaric remote from a dollar store. also, i may have an extra remote for you.
