Sony 46v5100 I'm getting no signal when I turn on tv. I have a ROKU box that works on all my HDMI inputs.

I have cox cable. When I go to signal diagnostics my over the air channels have good signal strength 89, SNR (db) 30. However when I switch to cable my diagnostics gives me nil numbers.Signal strength zero, SNR N/A,. Would you agree the signal is getting lost from my cable box output to the tv input. Cable guy says its not their problem because they can reset my box remotely. A remote signal to reset the box is not the same as a incoming video and audio signal. My question is the signal diagnostic good to check incoming cable signal.I have never used it when I had a good signal.

SOURCE: Cannot get a connection with HDMI input

When the tv won't scroll to the HDMI inputs, it means that the tv does not detect a signal on those inputs. This either means the tv has an issue and can't receive an HDMI signal(very unlikely) or there is no signal being sent from the source(converter box) The first thing I would do is unplug all output connections from the box except for the HDMI output and see if this gets rid of your problem. If not, I would be more inclined to think you have a problem with your converter box than with your TV. You could also try using the HDMI ouput of a DVD player if you have one.

SOURCE: sony bravia klv-32t400a hdmi input through x-box

The problem is that, according to the specs for that TV, it doesn't support 1080p.
That's a 720p television you've got. (Specs here)
While the specs say that it supports 1080p, the resolution says it supports 1366 x 768, which is only 720p, not 1080p or even 1080i.
You may want to contact Sony for clarification, because their specs for that tv are contradicting each other.

SOURCE: 50" Vizio Plasma reads "No Signal" on all inputs?

Well, your TV is still under warranty. That's the good part.
The only thing I can recommend without voiding the warranty is leaving the TV unplugged for 30min. That way, the TV can reset itself and hopefully correct the problem.

If that doesn't solve the problem, it's time to use the VIZIO warranty.
Here's contact info if you need it.

SOURCE: HDMI failure Samsung HL-R5087W 50 in HDTV

After reviewing the service manual for this set, the problem is is in the DIGITAL BOARD. To get the right Digital Board you will need the Version number of the TV.

Good luck

SOURCE: Sony Bravia does not recognize my Dell Inspiron 1525

I have the 1525 and you have to do extra steps each time you want the HDMI to be recognized by the Bravia - too bad it is not automatic as it is with some. Anyway what you have to do is have the HDMI cable connected from laptop to TV then go to your desktop - right click on an open area (away from icons), a menu will appear, let the cursor hover over Graphics Options - you'll then see Output To...then you'll see Intel Dual Display Clone...hover over that and you'll then see Notebook + Digital Television...left click on that and you should see your desktop on the TV in a few seconds. If it does not work the first time...get your movie or whatever you want to show up and ready and go thru these steps again...stupidly complicated aye? when it should automatically detect and show...are other TVs like this?

I am getting no sound when on TV sound.

Yes, to get sound from your Roku TV to your receiver when using the TV's built-in apps (such as switching to TV sound), you might need more than just RCA cables. RCA cables only carry analog audio signals, and many modern devices, including Roku TVs, use digital audio signals for better quality.
Here's what you can do to ensure you're getting sound from your Roku TV to your receiver:
  1. Check Audio Settings on Roku TV:
    • Go to your Roku TV's settings menu.
    • Look for the audio settings section.
    • Make sure the audio output is set to the correct option for your receiver. This is usually HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) or Optical audio.
  2. Use HDMI Cable with ARC Support:
    • If your receiver and TV support HDMI ARC, connect an HDMI cable between the ARC HDMI port on your TV and the ARC HDMI port on your receiver.
    • Ensure that the HDMI input on your receiver corresponds to the HDMI ARC output on your TV.
    • In the TV's audio settings, select HDMI ARC as the audio output.
  3. Use Optical Cable (if no HDMI ARC):
    • If your TV and receiver don't support HDMI ARC, you can use an optical audio cable (Toslink cable).
    • Connect one end of the optical cable to the optical audio output on your TV.
    • Connect the other end to the optical audio input on your receiver.
    • In the TV's audio settings, select optical audio as the audio output.
  4. Configure Receiver Settings:
    • Ensure that your receiver is set to the correct input source for audio. For example, if you're using HDMI ARC, select the corresponding HDMI input on your receiver.
  5. TV App and Volume Settings:
    • When using apps on your Roku TV, make sure the volume is turned up and not muted within the app itself.
    • Adjust the TV's volume settings to an appropriate level that allows your receiver to amplify the sound effectively.
  6. Test with Different Content:
    • Test the setup with different apps on your Roku TV to ensure that the issue is not specific to a certain app.
If you've tried these steps and are still not getting sound from your Roku TV through your receiver, it's possible that there might be compatibility issues between your TV and receiver. You could also try reaching out to Roku's customer support or your receiver's manufacturer for further assistance.

How do you hook up a Roku box to a LC320EM2

To connect a Roku box to an LC320EM2 TV, you'll need to follow these steps:
  1. Connect the Roku box to the TV using an HDMI cable. Locate the HDMI port on the back of the TV and plug one end of the cable into the Roku box and the other end into the TV.
  2. Power on the Roku box and the TV.
  3. Change the input source on the TV to HDMI by pressing the "Input" or "Source" button on the TV remote. Keep pressing the button until you reach the HDMI input that the Roku box is connected to.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions on the TV to complete the Roku box setup process. This will involve connecting the Roku box to your home Wi-Fi network and creating a Roku account.
  5. Once the setup is complete, you should be able to use the Roku remote to access various streaming services, such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video, on your LC320EM2 TV.
If you have any issues during the setup process, refer to the Roku box manual or contact Roku customer support for further assistance.

HDMI signal cuts out for a few seconds constantly from receiver to television. It does it when switched to cable box and the roku box. Onkyo TX-SR606 Scientific Atlanta Cable box thru HDMI Roku Box...

Mine did the same thing where the screen would go black for a few seconds and then the picture and sound came back. I would try (1) switch HDMI cables, (2) try a different HDMI input in the back of the receiver, (3) try different input in the back of the TV. None of these seemed to work with mine. I finally ended up running the cable box direct to the TV and only run the audio through the reciever via coax or digital. No more problems. I think the HDMI inputs in the back of the reciever have a problem continuously carrying the signal if it is the leaset bit weak.

Kdl-46v5100 tv now dos'nt recognize hdmi.says no

Try another HDMI cable. I have seen them become defective. If it is not the cable, then try another HDMI device to test the TV.
Without an HDMI cable tester, and a way to measure the output of the HDMI source device the only way to resolve this is with the process of elimination.

you may have to set the input value on the bravia for optical on the input from the cable box. sometimes there is more than one way for a particular input to receive an audio signal, you may have rca(red and white), a black or orange rca type for digital, and then the optical. i would suspect you have to tell the bravia how the sound is inputed into the bravia. also , just a thought.... on the cable box there should be a volume control on the front of the box........ make sure the cable box volume is ALL the way up (it is the preamp volume).
