Will NOT acknowledge one channel

I have the 37" Olevia and it worked fine until a few days ago. Then is would not get in the local FOX channel. I tried re-scanning several times... it'll find it, show the channel is in there, but when I turn on that channel, it'll flash to a blue screen that says "no signal" then switches automatically to channel 2 (which is blank). I tried disconnecting all cables and turning power switch off, waited 2 hrs., reconnected and it was still doing the same thing. I tried a portable digital TV on the antenna hook-up and it received FOX just fine. So for now, I cannot get FOX at all on this TV. Any suggestions besides paying a repair man $70 just to look at it? Is Olevia just junk and best to start shopping for a better brand?

    Spoke to repair man; he has calls from other Olevia owners with same problem. He has a few TV's in his shop; the Samsung it getting FOX fine, the off-brand (Daewoo or something like that) is now doing the same thing as the Olevia and will now not pick up FOX. He thinks the station may be putting out a weaker signal that some of the tuners cannot pick up. I tried hooking up a converter box from the set in my bedroom to my Olevia and then I can get FOX, but the overall picture quality on all channels is horrible and forget HD. This is all I've learned so far.... possibly a less-than-stellar tuner in the Olevia and some of the other cheaper brands.

This problem was already posted by someone else and they were having the same issue as you.. they said that they contacted FOX engineers via email and they emailed them back stating there was a problem on there end and with in the next day the channel started to show up on the Olevia television.
Seems like FOX has changed there frequencies and some television were having trouble picking them up.. depending in the area..you might want to try contacting them in regards to your problem to see what they suggest..

Unable to pick up local ''free'' channels following digital change over. Using RCA DTA800 converter and Phillips 2750/27 antenna. Can pick up only one local channel, but signal loss is more often the...

first of all, make sure all your connections are secure and threaded all the way in. Next, go to the main menu and press 5 (configuration) and press 1 (search for channels) if this doesn't work, press 4(signal strength meter) and see how strong your signal is. You may just need to re-position your antennae. If all else fails try system reset(number 5) and repeat search for channels. I've had similiar experiences with mine but I have a 62% signal strength and still get 20-something channels. Hope this helps.

Same thing... suddenly will not "allow" one channel to be seen

go to tv menu, do an "autoprogram" and it will select all available channels.
You can also do an add/remove channel and manually delete the channels you know you don't have.
You can also change your tv from air to CATV (cable) On cable tv you can still get all the air channels and Fox just the numbers will be different, but you may have a better signal

Digital tuner stopped working. Analog tuner works fine.

I have the same problem. I checked with Philips and they told me to take it to a local shop. If you get a solution please let me know.

My Olevia LT37HVS 37' was working fine all day and turned to black screen.

It is either the fluorescent backlight source for the LCD panel or its associated power supply failing.

HD screen

You should verify that you are not just simply losing reception from a fault in the antenna.

If the signal is okay from the antenna, it is possible that the TV is having a failure in its tuner or IF sectons just to mention a starting point.
