No sound

1

Ensure mute is not turned on. Pressing the Mute button on the

remote control turns the mute function on and off.

2

If only certain TV channels do not have sound, then you need to

correct the Input Select menu in the TV Menu (see "Input Select"

on page 28).

3

Verify that the audio cables are firmly connected to both the audio

input connectors on your TV and audio output connectors on

your devices. Ensure that the cable colors match the connectors

colors.

4

Also, ensure that the audio cables are connected to the same row

as the video cables. See "About Your TV" on page 5 for the

location of the connectors.

5

Reconnect the device using the same type of connector. For

example, if you are using the composite connector on the bottom,

try connecting the device to the composite connector on the side

of the TV. See "About Your TV" on page 5 for the location of the

connectors.

After you connect the device, change the input source in the TV

Menu. See "Input Select" on page 28 for more information.

6

Connect the device using a different connector. For example, if

you are experiencing the problem using a composite connector, try

using the component connector.

NOTE:

To connect to a different connector, you need the appropriate

cables for that connector. See your device documentation for a list of

supported connections.

After you connect the device, change the input source in the TV

Menu. See

"Input Select" on page 28

for more information.

7

Test the device on a different TV.

If you are using PIP/POP/PBP, ensure the proper Audio Source is

selected. Press Menu on your remote control, and select

PIP/POP/PBP.
