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) and PAL (720 x 576i/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.
• This unit's power may be turned on each time you turn on the power
for a connected Flat Screen TV. If you do not want this unit to be turned
on in this way, set this unit's HDMI Control to Off (page 147).
• This unit's power may be turned off when you control this unit from a
connected Flat Screen TV. If you do not want this unit to be turned off
in this way, set this unit's HDMI Control to Off (page 147).
• The connected Flat Screen TV, AV system (amplifier or AV receiver
etc.), or HD AV Converter 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 Screen TV and
AV system to change inputs in this way, set this unit's HDMI Control
to Off (page 147).
• When using HDMI Control to record, you must make sure that the
channel information for the Flat Screen TV matches that of this unit. If
the channel information does not match you cannot make recordings.
Use the Auto Channel Setting function to set this unit's channel
information (page 138).
