I have a Sony DCD Recorder (RDR-HX780) and Sony 40" 1080P LCD TV (KDL40S510) "tripple checked lines and HD cable connection." Problem (which occurs randomly and is anoying): When switching to DVR or HDD/DVD on the Bravia, the screen goes blank, displays messages: TV NOT FOUND, accompanied by NO SIGNAL. after 20 seconds it either gets connected or the screen stays black. When screen stays black power on and off does not seem to work but unpluging a reconnecting the HDMI cables repeadely does work. (have switched HDMI cables with another and same problem occurs) any solutions?

Try this: got to www.sony.com mouse over "support" then click on "drivers/software" enter your model #(s) and then you can check for firmware updates, the symptoms that you list, unfortunently are somewhat common when connected via HDMI cables.
Check for updates on both product that you list.
Good luck !

Best way to connect sony Bravia TV, RDR-HXD890 recorder and Sky Q box, please??
Connecting your old RDR-HXD890 player/recorder to your Sky Q box and TV can be done by using the appropriate cables and connections. Here is an example of how you can connect the devices:
  1. Connect the HDMI output of the Sky Q box to the HDMI input of the RDR-HXD890 using an HDMI cable. This will send the video and audio signals from the Sky Q box to the RDR-HXD890.
  2. Connect the HDMI output of the RDR-HXD890 to the HDMI input of the TV using an HDMI cable. This will send the video and audio signals from the RDR-HXD890 to the TV.
  3. Connect the aerial cable to the aerial input of the RDR-HXD890
  4. Connect the RDR-HXD890 to the power outlet
  5. Turn on all the devices and set the TV to the HDMI input where the RDR-HXD890 is connected.
By connecting your devices in this manner, you will be able to watch and record TV shows and movies from your Sky Q box through the RDR-HXD890 and display them on your TV.

Connecting and recording sony hdtv, rdr-hx780 recorder,sony dream system
I have the same system, except for the TV, I have a project (that part doesn't matter).

From your Sat. go straight to your AV receiver
Again from you Sat. (all of the AV outputs are all live), go out from either 1 or 2 and go to your recorder Line 1 in.
From you AV receiver go to your TV.

All you have to do is hit record and you will record whichever channel you are on. I am having difficulty getting it set up as a PVR, but will figure it out sooner or later.

Hope this helped.

Sir I have just acquired a Sony DVD recorder model no. RDR-GX350. I have an LG LCD TV and a Sky HD Box and I have connected the recorder to the TV with an 'S' lead and I can play a DVD, I can't set up the...
Thanks, but no thanks, in the long run it is better to get a technician in to sort it, more expensive yes, but not so traumatic as trying to deal with someone by typing in answers to questions, the man I dealt with assured me I had two scart plugs on my TV. I only have one, so he said it can't be done, end of story.

Dark horizontal lines on Sony KLV-26HG2 LCD TV screen
Hello,

If you can fix it by yourself, there is a problem in horizontal circuit panel, you need to check that in series because the part appear visbly good but when tested by the exact tester you register busted. that should be replaced immediately. Check also the vertical panel parts of the circuit. but if hard you do the job you may consult the service center of your TV or the vendor of the TV.

ps. please don't rate me if you are not convince of my suggestion.

best regards, melnavz
