If you are trying to watch HD TV through the tv and you are only getting sound, it is most likely because you would need an High Definition cable box. Hope it helps

I have a nspdp42 plasma and i cant affort cable and want free tv. is there a analog to digital converter in the unit already? the model # is 801rmd2237770 Thank you

The Insignia NS-PDP42 Plasma HDTV has a built in ATSC/NTSC/QAM tuner.

In short, yes, it does have a digital converter built in, but you will need a antenna capable of receiving digital broadcasts. You can find these at Walmart for $15 to $60.

No analog channels or audio.

Hi Janet, Could you provide the number of your repair service. I have the same exact issue and I am unable to find a service repair technician who knows how to do this!
