There is a large black square in the middle of the TV screen and I don't know how to get rid of it. There is sound and picture behind the black square.
Thanks so much! The solution worked! I use two controllers because of the DV-R hookup and the DV-R controller doesn't have a Close Caption button, so I couldn't figure it out and the sensor on the TV controller is weak. Getting the controller close to the TV and pressing the CC button did the trick!Thanks so much! The solution worked!

Re: There is a large black square in the middle of the TV...
Hi, This seems Close Caption is On in your tv. Please turn Off Close Caption by pressing CC button on tv remote. Let me know if you have additional question, please also mention model number of tv. Thanks.

You`ve mentioned that ON CERTAIN CHANNELS THE TV WORKS FINE, so your trying to say that not all channels THE BLACK SQUARE APPEARS IN THE MIDDLE O THE SCREEN... my be that black square is generated from the broadcast center. may be your unit is good. let me ask you how many channels that your tv works fine..?
This is a caption for hearing impaired, grab remote! scroll down to captions, use right arrow 1,2,3,off when the cursor is flashing over the " off " press enter on the remote, that should restore the set. Some remotes have the captions on a separate button.
You can likely buy a replacement remote here:

'Universal' remotes exist only in your dreams; there is no such thing since the manufacturers cannot agree on a basic code set that would work with any set.
None of them can control every function of every brand and model made.
your closed caption is on, this might be set on the cable box or the tv, look in the audio or set menu. If you dont have the remotr you should be able to navigate the menu on the tv with the onset controls
He, he. Somebody activated the subtitle mode on the remote. Desactivate the CC mode on your menu and it'll go away or at least if you want CC put it in CC1 Text1
I have a Sharp Tv that had the same problem with a large brownish or black square right in the middle of the screen. It only left about an inch around the edges that you
could see the picture moving in behind the big black block or square.I have DISH sat-elite and the book recomending that I check and see if the "caption settings" were on
or off. They were on. I turned the caption settings off and the large square diappeared.
