Make sure your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver is plugged into
a working power outlet. If the outlet is switched, make
sure it it turned on. If your DIRECTV HD Receiver is
®
plugged into a power strip, make sure it is plugged in
and turned on. Check the batteries in the remote
control.
Make sure your TV input (A/V mode) is set properly.
Make sure the A/V cables are properly connected.
Make sure the TV is not being muted.
Make sure the TV is turned on. Make sure your
DIRECTV ® HD Receiver is turned on. Make sure your
Access Card is inserted properly into your receiver.
Check the signal strength from the satellite (see
Checking the satellite signal strength in Chapter 3).
Make sure the coaxial cable is properly connected to
the satellite dish. Check the connections between your
DIRECTV ® HD Receiver and your TV. Turn your receiver
off, unplug it, wait 10 to 20 seconds, then plug it back
in, and turn it on.
If you connect your TV to one of the composite video
out jacks (Video Out, S-Video Out, or TV out), and you
view a high-definition program with the DIRECTV
®
Receiver's RESOLUTION button set to either 720p or
1080i, the picture will be slightly cropped at the top
and bottom (the very top and bottom edges of the
image will not appear on the TV screen). To avoid this
problem, set the RESOLUTION button to the 480p/i
position if your TV is connected to one of the composite
video outputs.
This means that the program you are trying to watch
may not be viewed on some outputs. Use a different
connection from the DIRECTV ® HD Receiver to your TV.
See the section Connecting your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver
in Chapter 3 for more information.

If your TV has a DVI input jack, but is not HDCP
compatible, you may not be able to view video from
your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver's DVI OUT jack.
You need to connect your TV using one of the other
video output jack on the DIRECTV HD Receiver.
®
If you turn on closed captions on both your DIRECTV
HD Receiver and your TV, you may see overlapping
closed caption displays.
To avoid this problem, turn on closed captions on either
the TV or the DIRECTV ® HD Receiver, not both.
Unplug your receiver for 10 to 20 seconds; then plug it
back in and turn it on.
Check the batteries in the remote control.
Make sure your subscription includes the channel you
want to watch.
Call your service provider if you are not sure.

locked icon ( ) in the channel banner.
It may be too late to purchase the program.
Try purchasing another showing of the same program.
Make sure the telephone line is properly connected.
If your system is locked, make sure the purchase does
not exceed your spending or rating limit.
Your Access Card may be full.
Call your service provider for assistance.
If you have forgotten your password, call your service
provider for assistance.
You can adjust left/right side of the screen using this
function because different TV vendor uses a different

The default setting is "Samsung Electronics DLP
products".
Use the keys in the front panel to enter into the menu
and set the remote control type as IR & RF.
