sony kdl-52v4100 "guide" function problem: Anyone has similar problem?
590922
I love this TV. It was a purchase of a lifetime for me. However, I NEVER could get the guide working properly. My cable system has it's own guide system, but sometime, I just want to watch just the TV, and use their guide. It keeps telling me that the guide is downloading overnight, but the next day, there is still NO guide information on the screen. If you got yours working, please tell me how you did it. Thanks "Emil"

The sound options need to be, "Audio Out" instead of TV Speakers, and change the "Variable" to "Fixed". This got the SPDIF cable working on my KDL-46EX520. I'd imagine your settings are very similar.

I think that's the one biggest flaw with this Sony model. If it senses a 720 or 1080 signal, it won't allow you to select Normal setting. A 4:3 image gets blown up and distorted by either "full" or "zoom" settings. I solved it with DVDs by changing the setting at the level of the Sony player. But I haven't hooked up to a hdtv digital box yet, so I'm not sure how I'll deal with it then. You could use your DVD player as a tuner, possibly, but I hope there's a better solution than that or the TV gets sent back.

wow.. it took me forever to find a solution to this problem. The Up, Up, Down, Down, etc. solution worked for me! Thank you! Thank you! btw, mine was Panasonic DMP-BDT220 Blu ray player.

I also just got this tv & am having the same issue. It's very distracting & is driving me crazy! Im actually considering sending it back & going back to my sony sxrd. Any help would be much appreciated because i do love the color depth on this tv & hate to get rid of it.

I had a similar problem. The sony analyst walked me through power resetting and pulling batter + memory card. None of the checks corrected the problem. I used the 'tap it on a hard surface' technique and it is back up and working. The pulling the camera lens did not work so the tapping technique will be used until we tap it into its grave.

Sony has an instruction book you can access online. It gives step by step help on a number of issues. Be sure you have the model #. I have the PRS300 and mine has to be connected to the computer to download books.

Nathan, I think it could be a firmware fix as well. I tried the continuous AF mode as well and it didn't help.

That sounds like a problem with your individual unit. My wife got me the Blu-ray edition of Planet Earth for Valentines Day and I've been watching them constantly.....no problems detected...not even the slightest hiccup. Have you loaded the latest firmware patch from Sharp? I loaded it the day I bought my player (a couple months ago). Good luck with getting this working!!

I have the same problem! This has really been bothering me, especially when it goes in and out. I am going to try to change the backlight and also notice if it has something to so with it only happening with bright shots.) Since it is under service warranty, I definitely plan to call the service repair number. Did any of you call for service? I will check the model of my 40" sony.

There is also an area where you can manually set black levels which may help. Your problem seems a little different than mine. I have the TV, Pioneer Receiver, and PS3 as the Blu-Ray player. I haven't had a problem since I switched it to standard mode.

Cool! I thought I had tried this but now it seems to work on manual setting. Thanks for the help!

Thanks very much for the info., Les. I actually returned my camera when even Panasonic tech support couldn't fix the problem, but I later learned it was not a defective camera. I'll be buying it again in the near future as I think it's a great camera, and I'll be saving your message in an attempt to figure it all out. Also, too bad there's no flash button on the camera and that you have to go to the menu to fiddle with it. That's weird! (and too bad it doesn't pop up automatically, like my Sony) THANKS AGAIN!

My KDL46V5100 turns off and on by itself randomly. Very frustrating! no long under warranty and I'm more than very disappointed in lack of solution from Sony.
