Remedy
• Try disconnecting then reconnecting the HDMI cable (while the
power of both components is on).
• Try switching the power of the HDMI/DVI device off then back on.
• Try switching off the HDMI/DVI device and this recorder. Next, switch
on the HDMI/DVI device and leave it for around 30 seconds, then
switch on this recorder.
• When you connect an HDMI-compatible device make sure of the
following:
– The connected device's video input is set correctly for this unit.
– The cable you're using is fully HDMI-compliant. Using a non-
standard cable may result in no picture being output.
– Don't use several HDMI cables connected together. Use a single
cable to connect devices together.
• When you connect a DVI-compatible device make sure of the
following:
– The connected device's video input is set correctly for this unit.
– The DVI terminal on the connected device is HDCP-compatible.
– The connected device is compatible with NTSC (720 x 480i/p,
1280 x 720p, 1920 x 1080i/p) video input.
• If the recorder's internal HDD is damaged or broken, there will be no
HDMI output.
• Not all HDCP-compatible DVI devices will work with this recorder.
• If you choose a setting that is incompatible with your TV you may not
be able to see any picture at all. In this case, press  OPEN/CLOSE
while holding down the  (Stop) button on the front panel to switch
the setting (this also switches Component Video Out on page 114 to
the default setting).
• There is no sound when using a DVI terminal.
• Some HDMI-compatible devices do not output sound (check with
the manual that came with the connected device).
• This unit's power may be turned on when you control this unit from a
connected Flat Panel TV. If you do not want this unit to be turned on in
this way, set this unit's HDMI Control to Off (page 120).
• This unit's power may be turned off when you control this unit from a
connected Flat Panel TV. If you do not want this unit to be turned off in
this way, set this unit's HDMI Control to Off (page 120).
• The connected Flat Panel TV or AV system (amplifier or AV receiver
etc.) automatically may change inputs in response to this unit starting
playback or having the GUI screen (ex. Disc Navigator) displayed. If
you do not want your Flat Panel TV and AV system to change inputs in
this way, set this unit's HDMI Control to Off (page 120).
