I bought a used mitsubishi ws 55513 and when i turn the tv on is says 480i stretch. How do i use the 1080?

Tries CBS or NBC channels have HD if displayed 1080i than ur box is working.The shows must say HD or Display 1080i to work HD programming.

i think you are connecting to wrong jacks

Connect your component cables to the DTV connections.

Greetings,

In the input assignment menu make sure that the DTV (the only 1080 input on this tv) is set to Y/Pb/Pr and see if that fixes your issue with at least the HD-DVR.

BTW- the HDMI information "1080i HD can only be selected if TV has HDMI inputs". is not correct.

you might want to have the power transformer checked to make sure its working correctly.sometimes when they go bad all you get is the flashing light

Hi there, I have a Mitsubishi HDTV 1080 and when I tried to turn it on the tv this morning it wouldn't turn on and the power light is flashing green. I pushed in the reset button but it just keeps flashing and still won't turn on.

Try changing the settings on the Xbox under display to 1080i. If it is 1080 p, or 720p, the image will look funny so make sure it is at 1080i.

Your welcome

Your friend from down the lane!

RGB picture guns ( CRT's ) are ok. Your set needs a common
convergence circuit overhaul requiring replacement of two IC's,
part # STK392-570. Usual cost about 400.00.........T.

Looks like you are going to be working with the following:

 

1080i (HDTV) • 480p (EDTV) • 480i (SDTV)

 

Hook up depends on what else you have connected to the TV.  If you have nothing connected to the DTV component inputs, I suggest using those, as it will allow up to 1080i.  Otherwise, use the 2 other component connections directly to the left of the DTV connections.

Did you say you got it from an X friend? LOL Sorry, its not funny, It obviously didn't like being moved. Sounds like solder problem in the power supply somewhere, hunt round locally for a good shop. (probably a few hundred dollars to get fixed.)
