My FIOS TV only uses the Coax cable not the HDMI cable
Drydorn
Newbie

I can only get my STB to use the coax cable to my TV, I want it to use the HDMI cable for a better HD picture, but I do not see a way to get the STB to use the HDMI cable as the primary output. How do I tell my STB to use the HDMI cable instead of the coax? My STB is Model:QIP7100-P2.

Are you using the HDMI Input in your Input select TV settings?

Can't see the image.

You have to upload it not cut and paste link to it.

The outputs are all active. So until we see or your picture, or you describe how you are trying to hook up in more detail, we can offer little help.  Model of TV and STB may be important.

Remember this is a peer to peer support.

No. Need to provide URL if you are using an online photo album.

Or just hit the icon that looks like mountains and upload the image directly to this forum.

Are you trying to post this as a solution for the OP or do you have a problem as well?
