Problem Possible Solution
Video is
unstable or
only black and
white
Check that you are using the correct broadcast standard
format:
• For proper operation, you must specify your country in
the TV Channels Initialization Wizard.
• Check the quality of your incoming TV signal on another
receiver; bad reception may be the cause.
• Try connecting your tuner directly to the cable TV or
antenna source. Too many splitters in the cable will
degrade the signal.
There is no
video or audio
• Ensure that your cable or antenna is connected.
• In the TV Video Settings page, ensure that the video
connector is set to the correct source.
• Check that the audio and video connectors are securely
plugged into the correct jacks.
• Check that your video card is securely seated in its slot.
Please refer to the user guide for the card location.

sufficient disk space.
• Ensure that you are recording to the correct hard disk
— click the Disk Space Settings button in the
Personal Video Recorder settings page.
• The maximum file size for the FAT 32 file system is 4
Gigabytes. You can reduce the file size by reducing the
frame size of the recording in Personal Video Recorder
settings. MPEG files are usually much smaller than AVI
files.
