Phillips model 42PF9631D/37 Plasma TV PIP Setup

I lost the owner's manual to this TV and I can not figure out how to set up PIP dual screen so it plays two different channels or sources. I can get the dual screen on, but can only get a signal on the left box and the right side always says "source unavailable". Anyone know how to set this up?...Im trying to get 2 PS2's on the screen at the same time. Thanks.

I have a 42" Philips model 42PF9631D/37. When I try and use the picture in picture feature, a black box appears in the upper left and it says "Source Not Available" in the upper right. I am using HDMI cables in both my Cable Box and Blu-Ray player. How do I set this up to work correctly. I haven't been able to get any assistance from the users manual.

Our Phillips brand flat screen plasma tv will not turn on the light is blue but you can just hear a clicking that just continues to click. Once in a while it just turn on....

I would speculate that you may have faulty capacitors in the power supply section.

I have phillips 42pf9631d/37 that wont turn on and blinks red seven times

I have the model Philips 37PF7320A/37 won't turn on and MOST articles on the Internet say it's the Capacitors capictors capictors..I checked all of them.

MINE WAS RESISTOR no. 3318 , a 100 OHM RESISTOR ON POWER SUPPLY BOARD.

I BOUGHT REPLACEMENT FOR .99 CENTS SOLDER IT, AND EVERYTHING WORKED!!!

THAT WAS ALL IT TOOK.

JUST A SUGGESTION..
1. CHECK FOR BULGING CAPACITORS (90 PERCENT OF THE PROBLEM)
2. THEN CHECK FOR RESISTORS WITH MULTIMETER ( FALLS INTO THE OTHER 10 PERCENT OF THE PROBLEM.)

TELL ME IF THAT [email protected]

If you are using the component output from the dvd player (3 wire video) progressive scan connect corresponding cable to tv . Besure to match colors. If you are getting a black and white double image you need to set the output of the dvd player to progressive scan. See owners manual for dvd player to set this. The yelow color jack on the tv is composite video and is not compatible with the 3 wire video .

I have a Phillips LCD tv model #42PF7421D/37. and

I know on the plasma TV's it was a matter of updating or downloading and re-installing the firmware/software for the TV to fix the issue. Go to the following page and if the model you have is indeed a 42PF7421D/37 download the software on the page. Make sure you follow the installation instructions to update the software otherwise the set will become a 150 lb paper weight.

Removing closed captioning

Worked it out. The Direct TV remote has a yellow button and that did it. I don't know whether I had inadvertently programmed it that way but problem gone.
Thanks.
