I have a 2006 Sony Bravia TV. The green light is on, and I charged the headphones for over 24 hrs per the manual instructions. I plugged the RCA adaptor into the headphone jack of the tv, and then plugged the red and white RCA jacks into the adaptor. I've tried tuning on all 3 frequencies, and nothing but static. HELP!

What are you plugging your 2 RCA connectors (from the headphones) into on the television?
You are correct, usually:
White = Left
Red = Right
In this case
Black = Left
Red = Right
Not sure....guess some manufacturers need to be different...
Back to the issue,
You to need to connect the Black to White and Red to Red to the TV BUT you need to make sure you are connecting to an OUTPUT and not to an INPUT on the TV. Most newer TV's do have an "audio out RCA jacks" on the TV but not all. It should be labeled at the connector if it is an output, or just another input. You can always consult the TV manual to be sure.
Few things you can do to test
I hope this helps,

First thing is you need to have a signal going to the headphones for them to work.
If you are getting a signal the green light should be lit.
If only the red lamp is lit the headphones are not getting a signal.
If hooked into a television you should have them plugged into a Fixed Output not variable output..
If you only have a variable output then you must turn the speakers off on the television and then turn the volume up on the TV in order to send a signal to the headphones.
If you are using a amplifier make sure you are using the correct output. Tape Monitors generally will not work as this output is not amplified.
Lastly try using an rca to headphone adapter and plug them into a headphone jack.
