Does anyone have problem with Sony LCD TV and Time Warner Cable? I recently bought a new Sony LCD Television (KDL46Z100) and I have Time Warner cable (which sucks!). I set up the code for the TV according to the remote manual. Everything worked fine until I turned the cable box off. When I turned it back on, the remote does not work (until 15-20 mins. later). It seems it takes the TV quite a while to pick up the signal from the remote. The sound went out occassionally for 5 sec. at various intervals. I called Sony and told them about the problem. They said its not the tv because my dvd player works fine and its the cable box/remote. I returned the box and remote to Time Warner this past weekend and got a different box and remote. I programmed the remote again and the same problem continues. The tv does not pick up the signal from the remote for like 15 or 20 mins. The sound problem went away but i'm still annoyed with the remote. any ideas what the problem could be? I even took the hdmi cable out and used the composite cables to see if it was a cable wire thing and still the tv delays on the signal. The only thing I can think of is the tv model is so new, the cable box is not familiar with such model? I don't know. Getting frustrated. I'm getting quite sick of the quality service of Time Warner (channel freezes, on demand does not work sometimes, etc.) I might switch to another provider like RCN. Anyways, getting off topic here. I would appreciate some insight on my question. Thanks. The original Sony remote works fine but i can't use it with my cable box, can I?

Sony Bravia LCD 40" no picture but has sound? Just seven days ago I purchased a Sony Bravia 40" LCD television. It worked great when it was installed, although I noticed that sometimes when I changed the channel that the whole screen would go black for 3 to 5 seconds. Yesterday, just a week after delivery, I turned it on and there was sound but no picture at all. None. A completely dark screen. it doesn't even display 'Bravia' on the screen at startup. If I look at the screen in the dark, I can see a dark, dark, dark blue illumination but nothing else. I called the technical support help hotline but they weren't much help because they couldn't seem to understand that the screen is completely inoperable. So what's up with my week-old Sony Bravia 40" LCD television?

My Sony LCD TV just displays solid pink after a brief power interruption. Any ideas?

Oh, it’s a Sony MFM-HT205 if that helps.

Is there any risk of mercury exposure with LCD televisions or monitors? I have a 32" Sharp LCD HDTV and a 19" Sony LCD/TFT monitor but I recently found out that these displays contain fluorscent bulbs with small amounts of mercury. Is there any risk at all for any of the mercury to reach the users or viewers assuming that the user does not open up the screen? I presume that as these screens are sealed/enclosed in a very "air-tight" manner, sothat even if the bulbs were to break or become damaged, the Hg should not beable to escape the enclosed structure of the device. Is this a correct assumption? Looking at the manuals, there is no mention of any health concern due to theHg in the device - the only notice is to take proper precautions when disposing the device. But again, if the monitor's enclosure is not opened or tampered with by the user, is there any risk of any Hg dissipating out of it? I believe not but I would like a qualified opinion. Many thanks,

Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR2 LCD Television quit responding to side control and remote control for volume and mode? Just tonight, my Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR2 52 in. LCD Television quit responding to side controls and remote control for volume and mode. It will turn off via remote but nothing else will work via remote. Also, the side panel will turn on and off but no others controls are operable. Also, it used to power up within seconds and now the sound will come on after about 10 seconds but it takes 30 to 60 seconds for the image to appear. The image then looks fine and it seems to default to the satelite box and volume at medium level, the same as it was before this problem occurred. Im afraid to reboot and default to factory settings as then it will probably not reset to the satelite box and I shall have no tv at all but being unable to control the volume and switch to overair antenna is annoying. I have unplugged it, turned it off, etc, I can not access the menu function either via remote or via the side. Please, someone help me! I fear it may take a service call but I live a ways from the technician and the tv is mounted to the wall. The tv is about 3 years 3 months old as well. Could the problem be some type of module that powers or controls those items as they are all located in the same area? Thanks for your assistance in this matter. Debbie
