Picture goes out constantly with words "ypp searching" appearing

I have a 42in. Hitachi HD TV - went from cable to Direct TV-ever since we put in the high def box, my picture goes out constantly (can't even watch it its so bad)-screen goes black with only the words "ypp searching" on screen. We've switched boxes thinking that was the problem. When we tried a non-HD box, all worked fine?! But, I have an HD tv, and I want the HD picture! As well as the fact that Direct TV want's to charge us $50 to switch out the box AND re-up our contract. NO THANKS. HELP

SOURCE: Hitachi 42" plasma TV (42PD6600)

My plasma TV seems to have problems with picture immediately after turning on. At about two weeks ago, the TV lost picture after turning on the TV. It was corrected by disconnecting power then reconnecting. A switch on rear left hand side would click bringing picture ON, somehow this clicking seems to have problems being energized lately not allowing picture to come on the TV. Checked power cable and was getting 120 Volts to TV, nonetheless problem has gotten worst and TV does not show a picture? Your thoughts on my problem?

SOURCE: hitachi tv no picture

It sounds like the tuner demodulator has failed. Many times I have found that it is cheaper to buy an external hi-def tuner than repair the one that is in the set. The fact that the tuner is finding channels but not displaying them is a good sign that the demodulator has failed. In one case I had with Sony rear projector, it would have been $800 to repair the internal hi-def tuner and the customer can buy an external tuner for $100-$200. Sorry if this is not the answer you wanted; if you fel this si a good response to your question, please be sure to rate me,. Thanks!

Depending on the way you hook up the media or cable box, this is what you look for, if you are in the video area then look for V1, V2, V3 or the right one if you are on the RF connection then it also has an A and B side. Try each

My hitachi 42edt41 42in picture flickers

First. Try using a surge protector.
Could also try purchase a HDMI cable that is compatible with 100Hz,

Possible problems:
backlight inverter wearing out

Very Common In The Newer Tv Sets

Tv's have a chemical/molocules called phosphors that can be deentergized when a tv is left on for a long period of time. Not a serious problem but still annoying
