HDMI Skips

jimfof1913@msn.com

I have an Hitachi TV with two HDMI inputs. The first input is connected from the STB to the TV. The second one is connected to a DVD. When I turn on the TV it will go to a TV channel and then after about 5 seconds will change to the second HDMI. I tried to correct this by switching the HDMI inputs but the results stayed the same. The TV starts up on the second HDMI input be will then switch over to the first HMDI input.

Talked to tech person. After numerous attempted solutions it seems the Hitachi code for the FIOS remote won't work correctly with my TV. Will use TV remote to turn TV on instead of FIOS remote. Thanks to all that helped me.

Is the DVD player powered up when this happens? Try going into the menu on the Fios box and make sure TV Input Control is DISABLED. Menu> Settings >Audio and Video >Video Settings >TV input control. Make sure the DVD player stays off. You may also have to disable CEC in the Hitachi menu.

I have tried with the DVD turned on and disconnected. The TV Input is disabled. There is no CEC option on the Hitachi menu.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Please give me the model# of the TV and I'll look up the manual to see what can be done.
