    i just bought a LCD tv, insignia, and when it goes i change to Digital, the screen goes black and i only hear the sound, can anyone help me?

  4. Abraxas20012 says:

    because the cable transmits analog images and digital is what the computer sends to the screen

  5. GarciaTHPS says:

    “because the cable” so what can i do?

  6. Abraxas20012 says:

    get a tv tunner so u plug the cable from ur tv in the tv tunner and it will convert the analog to digital and then u can change to digital

    Calibration DVDs(I neither endorse or sell any particular product - just alerting you all to what’s available):Digital Video Essentials HD - HDDVD or BluRayAVIA HDOriginal Avia(1999) and DVE(2003) for conventional sets. Good in a pinch for getting the basic five controls(Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness, Color, & Hue) where they belong.First, lower backlight as suggested on here, set picture mode to Movie, insert one of the above DVDs and. . . .press play!

    Other Tips Since I’m in the Video-Conferencing/AV business:Lowering the backlight even to the midpoint will allow your other adjustments - Brightness, Contrast, etc. to interact correctly and make setting them more accurate.Another tip to improve accuracy/reduce consumption: Take out of “VIVID” mode and set picture mode to “Cinema” or “Movie”. These are dimmer but farrrrr more accurate and let you see programs/materials as they were produced.
