Troubleshooting - Not able to select one of the Video Input modes on a television when pressing the INPUT (TV/Video) button (i.e. the set skips over Component 2)

Your television has a feature called Input Labelling. This feature allows you to assign a label to a particular video input. For example, if you have a DVD player connected to Component Input 1, you can label the input as DVD.


This feature, also allows you to select "strong>SKIP" or "Not Used", if the input is not being used. When an input is labelled as "SKIP" or "Not Used", you cannot access it when selecting [TV/Video (INPUT)]. It will appear greyed out. If you have something connected, and want to access the input, go into the televisions Menu and select a different label.
