Sony KP-51WS520 51 in. Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television won't let you choose hdmi for input

Just upgraded to blu ray and after 15 years with Dish Network we upgraded to HD/DVR dual tv satellite receiver. The installer couldn't "choose" HDMI when he went in to the setup menu....he thinks our HDMI port might be bad (he tried two cables to make sure one of them wasn't bad) the tv is 8 years old still has a beautiful picture, but I'd like to enjoy HD finally so up to this point the HDMI port has never been used......

Hi,

Your receiver is the Denon AVR 2105 and not the Sony STR-DG510 5.1 Channels Receiver?

What port do you have the HDMI from you BD player into on the 510. If you have it on the DVD port then fiber optic will do you no good, the DVD HDMI only supports digital coax, the Video2 HDMI only accepts fiber optic, and there is an extra fiber optic for the Sat input. If your BD player does not have digital coax out, or if you dont want to buy another cable, just move the HDMI from DVD to Video2 on the 510. I am willing to bet you have the BD player plugged into the DVD HDMI port and the fiber optic cable from you BD player to the Video2 fiber input.

MY Sony (same model) has OUTstanding picture resolution and quality., I never have blockiness on any of the sports channels. I would say, give Comcast a call and complain about their signal.. they have a tech come over for free diagnostics on your wiring..

Sony kp-51ws510 Rear Projection HDTV - Picture quality is fine, just doesn't have any red's in the picture. What shoud i look into?

Make sure the cable box or DVD/Blu Ray player is hooked up properly. Sometimes one of the component cables can become loose and lose the reds.

The red tube could be shot also. My old projection tv had the green go out. Believe it or not the whole thing can be replaced, but to replace a CRT on an older model can cost a lot.

Our Sony KP-53HS30 53" HD-Ready Rear Projection TV

According to the tech manual I looked at, it's a bad board - it just doesn't say which board. Sorry. Looks like it's making a trip to the shop.

Good luck.

Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television and help with Sony KP-57WV600 57 in. ... still have sound, does this mean the projection lamp gone bad? When you turn on the TV, you can see a unclear image for few...

with this type of tv, you can be almost certain that something has gone wrong with the lamp or the cooling system for the lamp. the cost associated with these kinds of fixes are usually more than the unit is worth. The life span on rear projection TV's is not all that good,5-10 years. some last longer. but for most this is a good estimate. this tv has an auto focus feature that might help. also if this TV has a SD slot for upgrades, give it a try as well.

No, and do you know if such a cable exists?
The best picture is HDMI to HDMI, then the next step down is component - the three for video and two for audio.

Is a blu-ray player compatible with a rear projection tv phillip?

You need to use an HDMI connection from blu-ray player to the television. If your tv does not have an HDMI input the tv is probably to old and will not accept 1080P. If it does have an HDMI connection it should display a minimum of 1080i.
