Try using the TV's on-screen menu to manually add the channels or run another auto-scan. If done manually and the TV has no reception on these channels, the best you can do is to purchase a digital antenna which will provide more channels to a poor built-in antenna.
Ocassionally. digital TV did not load correctly, and must reboot and load firmwware to get the digital signals for the TV. Changing channel is not necessary for firmware to load correctly. But powerline glitches might cause a problem..
you connected the converter to AV1 that is the ONLY place you will recieve any signal leave the tv in av1 and run setup on the converter ONLY you should be all set
I checked out the manual for a similar model tv from polaroid...there's only one input for the coax cable from your antenna, so if the antenna's cable is connected to this input, this couldn't be the problem. What I do have trouble with on my own tv is that my indoor antenna location can make huge differences in recognizing all available digital signals. I could even have the antenna facing a different direction, and get different results. There are a few sites you can google for to find your distance from the broadcast towers, too. This might help to determine if you need a stronger antenna.
It's a painfully long procedure to try different angles and positions for your antenna each time you run a channel scan, but this might be the only thing that would prevent you from picking up the digitals. I try the highest spot possible, and the one closest to the outdoors. Good luck, I hope you can pick them up soon!
(Any antenna works...the industry tries to pass off "digital/hdtv specific antennas" to make a buck. I've used a cheapy rabbit-ears antenna and was able to bring in digital channels, as long as your tv or converter box is converting the signal.)
you need to go into the menue, under setup and chanels, do the auto program, it will memorise all the chanels that you can get, analog, and digital, after that, just type in an analog chanel, if it goes to a digital chanel, hit the chanel down button
