Poor picture AVR1600

The picture continually flashes to snow (grey screen) then back to TV. The problem normally fixes itself after about 30 minutes of watching TV/snow, or by me turning all components off and on few times. I notice this problem more in the mornings when the devices haven't been used in a few hours. Is it a setting on the Receiver? All connections are securely in the proper ports. Thank you,

This is not the malfunction to remote as you thinks. It with the set itself.

It seems the new, larger tvs these days put out too much light and it interferres with the remote signal. Simply put a post-it note or tape a piece of paper over the lights on the receiver and you have an affordable and instant fix. This isn't a good looking fix and I would be upset if the set were in a living room. Luckily ours is in the family room downstairs.

SOURCE: When I switch from watching movie to watch TV on

Hi, I would like you to try changing the input selection method for your TV. I suspect that some of the commands are incorrect.

1. In the software, click 'Settings' next to the icon for your TV.
2. Click 'Adjust Inputs'.

Make sure you select the method that best describes how the original remote changes inputs. Dont pay attention to the brand names. Also, make sure that the input list is EXACTLY the same in the software as on the TV itself.

Once you have done all of the input setup, update the remote and try it out again.

Let me know if that helps :)

SOURCE: While setting up the Crest

OKAY TRY THIS..
DO STEPS 1-3 AGAIN AND ONCE IT TURNS OFF KEEP CLICKING THE CURSOR UP A COUPLE TIMES.
THEN START CLICKING THE CURSOR DOWN SLOWLY TELL THE TV TURNS BACK ON AND ONCE IT CLICKS BACK ON HIT THE TV BUTTON ON THE TOP OF THE REMOTE ..
IF THE LIGHT BLINKS TWO OR THREE TIMES MORE THEN LIKELY YOU'VE PROGRAMED IT =)
AND NOW KICK BACK RELAX AND ENJOY A COLD BEER FOR THE BOTH OF US =)

SOURCE: remote control interferes with second TV

si24

It is possible that the 2 remotes are on the same remote address. This generally is not possible if one remote is IR and the other is UHF but with some receivers you can have an UHF remote for you TV 1. To resolve this issue you would need to readdress on of the remotes to a different remote address. I have provided instructions on how to readdress the remote. I hope this helps.

  • Remote: All Other Remotes
    1. Go to System Info screen
    2. Hold down the SAT button until all mode lights light up.
    3. Enter a number between 1 and 15 using the numeric keypad on the remote.
    4. Press the pound (#) button
    5. Once the SAT button blinks three times, press record. Note: If successful the number selected in step 3 will appear in the System Info screen under Remote Address.

The problem has been there all the time, probably a dry solder joint or a bad chip, thats got worse over time & has now completly failed, its time for either a trip to the tv repair man, or the best option a nice new smart tv, i just bought a 42" for £199 why mess about.

My screen is got a pink background how do I fix it?

The auto grey scale is obviously not working and I would expect the standby light to be flashing but as it is not, I suspect the tube itself. Poor or low emmision blue or green.
Hope this points you in the right direction.

Green power light comes on, the turns right back off. No picture. Please help

I'm not sure what TV model you have. But, thing I can tell you is the most common problem.
Most of the time with flat panel TVs, the power supply for the screen fails. And the TV normally turns itself off to protect other parts in the TV from being damaged. Basically " Protection Mode".

You can try leaving the TV unplugged for 30 minutes so the TV can reset itself; then try again turning it on. If it doesn't work after that, it's time for the TV repair shop.

Red Light Flashing 6 times

When the lamp fails in this unit, often the thermal fuse opens. The error code is 6 blinks. To replace this part requires a great deal of deal of disassembly.

Power light flashing/ no picture

I have the same problem. The only way to get the TV to come on is to unplug it, but once you get it back on it turns itself off again in a few minutes.
