Sharp Televison & Video - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues
How can I make the text sharp on Magnavox model 22ME601B/F7?
- Check HDMI Cable Connection: If you're using an external device like a cable box, gaming console, or streaming device connected to the TV via HDMI cable, ensure that the HDMI cable is securely plugged into both the TV and the external device. A loose connection can cause intermittent resolution adjustments.
- Adjust Picture Settings: Navigate to the TV's menu and check the picture settings. Look for options related to display resolution, aspect ratio, or picture mode. Ensure that the settings are configured correctly for your viewing preferences. Try resetting the picture settings to default and see if the issue persists.
- Update Firmware: Check if there are any firmware updates available for your TV. Sometimes, software updates can fix bugs or issues related to display resolution adjustments. You can usually check for updates in the TV's settings menu or visit the manufacturer's website for instructions on how to update the firmware.
- Check Signal Source: If you're experiencing resolution adjustments while watching content from an external device, such as a cable box or streaming device, make sure the signal source is sending a consistent signal. Issues with the signal source can sometimes cause the TV to adjust its display resolution.
- Reset TV: Try performing a factory reset on your TV to restore it to its original settings. Keep in mind that this will erase any customized settings and preferences, so you may need to set up the TV again after the reset.
- Contact Magnavox Support: If the issue persists after trying the above steps, it's possible that there may be a hardware problem with the TV. In this case, it's recommended to contact Magnavox customer support for further assistance or to inquire about repair options.
By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue of your Magnavox TV constantly adjusting its display resolution.
Hope this helps

Changing analog to digital on Sharp TV
Unfortunately, you cannot convert an analog TV to digital simply by changing settings. The transition from analog to digital involves hardware changes. If you have an older Sharp TV without a built-in digital tuner, you may need an external digital converter box or consider upgrading to a newer TV with a built-in digital tuner to receive digital broadcasts.
What is opc that pops up about every 10
Min
OPC is optical picture control. The television is adjusting itself to the lighting in the room. Even if someone walks in front of the television's sensor it will start to adjust and you will see opc on the screen and green leaves.
You can leave the feature on without the opc and green leaves appearing on the screen. Press the menu button. Scroll down to OPC. Press enter. Scroll to on. Press enter. Press menu to exit.

Sharp TV Audio Problem
Almost all intermittent audio or audio failure problems with Sharp Aquos LC**D4U, LC**D5U, LC**D6U, and LC**D7U televisions are the result of a relatively simple design flaw involving the heatsink pad compound used on the Tripath TA-2024 amplifier chip (IC2502) found on the A/V board. This compound has a fairly low melting point and, over time, tends to seep out from between both top and bottom heatsinks onto the legs of this chip as well as onto circuitry immediately surrounding it. Further, over time the seeping compound also becomes somewhat conductive creating bridges which short the audio amplifier circuit causing everything from intermittent audio to complete audio failure.
Fortunately, in almost every case audio can be completely restored by cleaning the old compound from both top/bottom heatsinks and from both sides of the PC board in the area immediately surrounding the chip (I used rubbing alcohol which worked quite well). Sharp has issued a service bulletin addressing this issue (LCDTV-194) wherein a ‘2502 Heat Kit’ is specified. This kit is Sharp Part Number: PSPKIT663WJZZ and is available from circuitcity.partsearch.com for $19.95. However, it’s entirely possible to get by with the heat pad only, Sharp Part Number: PSPAZA663WJKZ for only $9.95. Please note that board replacement for this problem is almost never necessary, so if you’re working with a repair technician be sure and insist that he/she be certain to try cleaning the old board and replacing the aforementioned heatsink pads before charging you for a new board.
If one is reasonably familiar with electronics disassembly/reassembly and is willing to take their time, this can even be a DIY project. It is possible to find ‘important service references’ by simply entering LC26D4U (the 5, 6, and 7 series are very similar, and this information covers all screen sizes) into the search field at eserviceinfo.com. This will greatly aid in disassembly/reassembly of the TV, as the A/V board is somewhat ‘buried’ under other boards. Please refer to post # 373 at avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=647174&page=13 for pics of the information detailed here.
Particular thanks are owed ‘Aureius’ of the AVS forums for his research efforts concerning this issue !
