Re: Installation of HDTV box problems

Last I saw here there's some 5100's at Circuit City and Best Buy demoing Discovery HD Theater on some HD Sets. They work well right, whats wrong with them? A buddy of mine has a 6208, but its a single tuner DVR.

Here's a manual (its PDF Format so you need Acrobat Reader)
»broadband.motorola.com/dvr/downl···uide.pdf

Maybe this can help you. It's not exactly your model, but the connections and configuration should be the same.

Excerpt:

There is no video on the TV screen
Verify that the TV is powered on and set to the
appropriate input source for the DCT*.
Verify that the DCT* is powered on and tuned to an
authorized cable channel.
Verify that the coaxial cable feed is firmly connected to
the DCT* and the wall jack.
The DCT* DVI output may not yet be enabled. Use the
component video (Y Pb Pr) output instead.
If the DCT* video output is connected to a home theater
unit, verify that the home theater unit is powered on and
set to the appropriate input source.
Not all HDTVs can display every output format (1080i,
720p, 480p, or 480i) available on the DCT*. Enter the
User Settings menu and cycle through the available
output formats until a picture displays on the TV.
Verify that all video cables between the DCT* and the TV
are firmly connected.
