You get unusable signal on your TV because your TV is not on the correct input setting to pick up the signal from your device (DISH Network or other provider). You only need to change the input setting to find the correct input to get the signal.

How does closed captioning work?

Closed captioning is a digital signal included with the main TV signal that a closed captioning decoder decodes, turning that into letters and displaying it on your screen. Many TV's have closed captioning decoders built in.If you're ever watching TV and at the top you see some little white lines, some short, some longer, that's actually the closed captioning signal you're seeing on your screen. Most TV's don't display it because of what they call, `overscan` but on some older TV's when the TV ages, it'll become apparent.If I remember correctly, closed captioning is included on line 18 of the video signal.Closed captioning is a text version of a television show that can be read on screen.


What if your HDTV will not stay in the 1080i mode why?

1080i is a signal format. Although most HD televisions have a display resolution of 1080 lines, this is different to the signal format of an incoming signal. When a television reports a signal format, it refers to the incoming signal. That is something outside the control of the television and is nothing more than an indicator. If the incoming signal is SD, then the television will report 480i or 576i. Whatever the incoming signal format, the television will reformat the image so that it can be displayed on the television screen, whatever the screen resolution is.

Will a 1080p signal work on a 1080i tv will it downconvert?

1080p signal may not work on a 1080i TV set. You may not get a picture, but just a blank screen. And that blank screen will not let you undo the changes because you cannot see anything on the screen. In this case, you may have to make an analog connection, such as a composite video connection, to your TV set just to undo the changes you have made. Or you have to press a combination of buttons on the 1080p signal source to restore the picture. I suggest you read the documentation that came with your 1080p signal source.


Stereo mono screen?

Most TV programs are now transmitted in stereo. If not, the TV will switch to a mono signal. Since you didn't say whether it was displaying stereo or mono on the screen while you're watching or if it's a choice in the TV's set-up menu, I can't say much. If you're watching, it's just letting you know if it's in stereo or mono. If you're setting up the TV, it's asking your preference. Do you want your sound in stereo or mono?
